Im The Girl (Album Version)
Ive got a memory a thousand years old
And I know secrets Ive never been told
And Ive got jewels I havent found
And theyll return me to the ground
Im the girl, Im the girl, Im the girl
You know me
Im the girl, Im the girl, Im the girl
You know me
And Im a siren; Ill wreck you on my shores
And Im Godiva; Ill call you back for more
And Im Medusa; and Im your favourite doll
And Im a Georgia OKeefe
Hanging on your wall
Im Joan of Arc, Im the girl next door
Im the mother and the daughter
of the mother and the daughter before
And I remember being born just
Sound and light and sound and light
And I remember the first time,
skin on skin in the arms of the night
Well how many times have we looked
Up into the starry skies, and how many times
have we felt the passion rise
Every ruby-lipped girl baby, old lady , squaw junkie
girl after girl after girl, every muse, whore, good witch,
princess, back arching, year after year after year
Im Joan of Arc, Im the girl next door
Im the mother and the daughter
of the mother and the daughter before
