Superwoman

Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick & Patti Labelle

Early in the morning I put breakfast on your table
And I make sure that your coffee has its sugar and cream
Ooh, your eggs are over-easy, your toast done lightly
All that’s missing is your morning kiss that used to greet me

Now you say your juice is sour when it used to be so sweet
And I can’t help but wonder if you’re talking about me, baby
We don’t talk the way we used to and it’s hurting me so deep
I got my pride, I will not cry, but it’s making me weak

I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human, whoa
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me

Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I fight my way through the rush-hour, trying to make it home just for you
I wanna make sure that your dinner will be waiting for you
But when you get there you just tell me you’re not hungry at all
You said you’d rather read the paper and you don’t want to talk

I’d like to think that I’m just crazy when I say that you’ve changed
Well I think I know the problem, you don’t love me the same
You’re just going through the motions and you’re not being fair
I got my pride, I will not cry, but I can’t help but care

I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human, only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me

Oh baby, look into the corners of your mind
I’ll always be there for you, through good and bad times
But I can’t be that superwoman that you want me to be
I’ll give my love, my lasting love if you return love to me

I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me

If you feel it in your heart and you understand me
Stop right where you are, everybody sing along with me
Ooh, ooh, oh, oh

I don’t wanna be super, super, superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me

I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me

I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl that you can lay down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me
