to deserve you

bette midler

i see so many golden women;

when they walk their feet don't touch the ground. how i want

how i want to deserve you. but me

i'm always out of rhythm. my needs too demanding

too proud. how i want

how i want to deserve you. i didn't want you to see me like this. the light of the dawn can be cruel. how i want

how i want to deserve you. and if i could be granted a wish

i'd shine in your eye like a jewel. how i want to deserve you. i would die for you. could you ever love me that much?

how i want

how i want to deserve you. yes

you tell me this

and i want to believe that it's true. aah

how i want

how i want to deserve you. i didn't want you to see me like this. i'm weak and i fight like a fool. how i want

how i want to deserve you. and if i could be granted a wish

i'd shine in your eye like a jewel. how i want to deserve you. if i could be your angel

i'd trade in my arms for some wings

to keep you close to me. and if i could trade my voice

for the silence i know that you need. aaaah

how i want

how i want to deserve you. i didn't want you to see me like this. so frightened of losing so soon. how i want

how i want to deserve you. and if i've caught our love in a grip

just tell me and i'll shake it loose. how i want to deserve you. oh

na na na na na. oh

ohhhhh. how i want to deserve you. na na na na na na na. whoa

ohhhhh. how i want to deserve you. oh

i want to deserve you. na na na na na na.
