Could you buy me a day In your life When I'm wearing the clothes That you wear, And could you give me your dimes for a day And just for one day take my place See mama says that I am beautiful, yeah And I am lovely the way that I am But if I am so sweet Why won't life Just give me What you have What you have What you have Or can I get away with Being you for a day Oh I wonder if I can Put me in a Box For a little while Tomorrow Take me out, again Or am I already As lovely as You Are you in my window pane Looking back at me Saying, Here I am Girl, You're Beautiful Could be that I am just too afraid To become who I already am Could it be that the life That was spoken to me Is indeed in my spirit, man, Oh Mama said touch the sky with your heels And to fly on the wings of the Lord Could I only believe that It is inside of me To be free To be free To be free Or can I get away with Being you for a day Oh I wonder if I can Put me in a Box For a little while Tomorrow Take me out, again Or am I already As lovely as You Are you in my window pane Looking back at me Saying, Here I am Girl, You're Beautiful
