[Lyrics for Ephemera – Countrysong]
You said go for it, I said stop
I’m more than willing to give this up
This is not meant for me
I’m as helpless as a girl can be
You said come, come on, I said wait
It’s impossible, it’s too late
This is not meant for me
I’m as helpless as a girl can be
I still fear though I know it all by heart, now
It all by heart now…
I still don’t dare, though I’ve learned every part, now
Every part now…
But if I had been stronger
If I had been brave
I could have given what I never gave
If I had been better
If I had been the best
You would be proud of me
Like all the rest
You would be proud of me
Like all the rest
You said try once more, I said well
This will not work, so I have to tell
This is not meant for me
I’m as helpless as a girl can be
I still fear though I know it all by heart, now
It all by heart now…
I still don’t dare, though I’ve learned every part, now
Every part now…
But if I had been stronger
If I had been brave
I could have given what I never gave
If I had been better
If I had been the best
You would be proud of me
Like all the rest…
You could be proud of me
Like all the rest….
