You said go for it, I said stop   I'm more than willing to give this up   This is not meant for me   I'm as helpless as a girl can be      You said come, come on, I said wait   It's impossible, it's too late   This is not meant for me   I'm as helpless as a girl can be      I still fear though I know it all by heart, now   It all by heart now...   I still don't dare, though I've learned every part, now   Every part now...      But if I had been stronger   If I had been brave   I could have given what I never gave   If I had been better   If I had been the best   You would be proud of me   Like all the rest   You would be proud of me   Like all the rest      You said try once more, I said well   This will not work, so I have to tell   This is not meant for me   I'm as helpless as a girl can be      I still fear though I know it all by heart, now   It all by heart now...   I still don't dare, though I've learned every part, now   Every part now...      But if I had been stronger   If I had been brave   I could have given what I never gave   If I had been better   If I had been the best   You would be proud of me   Like all the rest...      You could be proud of me   Like all the rest....
