I Was You Author Undisclosed I smiled your smile ‘til my mouth was set And my face was tight And it wasn’t right It was wrong. I was you baby, I was you too long. I said your words ‘til my throat closed up And I had no voice And I had no choice But to do your song. I was you baby, I was you too long. I lived your life ‘til there was no me I was flesh I was hair But I wasn’t there. It was wrong. I was you baby, I was you too long. And baby, baby The worst thing to it Is that you let me do it. So who was weak And who was strong? For too long baby I was you. Home Poetry Index All Graphics, Design, and Writing copyright © 2001, 2002 Pam Howerton. All Rights Reserved.
