song lyrics Slave lyrics
(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)
Listening for your footsteps Just waiting like a fool Burning with a fever Only you can cool
The clock beside my pillow Has ticked away the night Like a heartbeat mocking me Until the light
Gotta stop these thoughts about you Gotta learn to live without you Gotta find some freedom for this weary slave Cause I m hungry for you And I m longing for you And I m burning for you
I worship your opinions I imitate your ways I try to make you grace me With a word of praise
However much I tell myself That I m strong and free and brave I m just another woman Raised to be a slave
Slave, nothing but a slave Mind of a slave Body of a slave
I find I gave away the soul That I wanted you to save I m just another woman Raised to be a slave
hungry for you And longing for you Burning for you And I m longing for you burning for you And I m yearning for you Longing for you song lyrics
