Natural State

Lyrics and music © 2007 Eleanor Fye

It must be that the natural state of my heart

Is to be broken

It must be that the logical train of my thought

Should be unspoken

I can’t say how I got here

Though I’m sure it involved a lot of words

Prob’ly too many…

I must say that never expected my life

To be this way now

I just thought it would be a typical path

I didn’t ask how

I can’t say I’m disappointed

Though at times I admit I’m awfully sad

But mostly I’m happy…

I often fear I’ll be rejected by you

But then I realize you feel the same way too

Could it be the best foot forward set us back

And now we have to readjust

From all the glossing at the start

Do you remember?

The story of my life is one of

Rousing success

The story of my life requires some

Formal dress

No need to paint it up or tie it down forever

You’ve got me in my natural state

The story of my life is one of

Rousing success

The story of my life requires some

Formal dress

No need to paint it up or tie it down forever

You’ve got me in my natural…
