Woman of Heart and Mind

I am a woman of heart and mind
 With time on her hands
 No child to raise
 You come to me like a little boy
 And I give you my scorn and my praise
 You think I'm like your mother
 Or another lover or your sister
 Or the queen of your dreams
 Or just another silly girl
 When love makes a fool of me
 After the rush when you come back down
 You're always disappointed
 Nothing seems to keep you high
 Drive your bargains
 Push your papers
 Win your medals
 Fuck your strangers
 Don't it leave you on the empty side
 I'm looking for affection and respect
 A little passion
 And you want stimulation-nothing more
 That's what I think
 But you know I'll try to be there for you
 When your spirits start to sink
 All this talk about holiness now
 It must be the start of the latest style
 Is it all books and words
 Or do you really feel it?
 Do you really laugh?
 Do you really care?
 Do you really smile
 When you smile?
 You criticize and you flatter
 You imitate the best
 And the rest you memorize
 You know the times you impress me most
 Are the times when you don't try
 When you don't even try
