Lyrics

without me

if i didn't have these legs, and i didn't have these arms
i'd swim off like a blue gill, far away from harm
but i'm a woman who's always trying to please
and i'm a daughter taught to do as she should
i would swim away if i could
i would swim away if i could

oh world, you are beautiful without me

if i could paint a landscape, then i'd paint your hips
or i'd try to capture the grin that's on your lips
but i'm a woman who's oh so hard on herself
and i'm afraid that it wouldn't be any good
i would paint you if i could
i would paint you if i could

oh world, you are beautiful without me

if i didn't have to work, and i didn't have to eat
i would stay out in the garden till moss grew on my feet
but i'm a woman who's always going or gone
just when i settle, it's time to be moving on
i would stay here if i could
i would stay here if i could

oh world, you are beautiful without me
world, you are beautiful without me
