Phyllis Hyman - Why Not Me Lyrics






I've traveled down this road before
It seems this time that I'm not sure
Should I even try again
Try to believe that there's someone there for me
Now that I'm alone
My heart needs to know
Why not me (why not me)
Is it a crime to be myself (myself)
To be who I was meant to be (ooh)
Why not me (why not me)
Doesn't everyone deserve to find that dream (to find that dream)
Why not me
I want to know
Can you tell me
Why not me
Could I be right
Could I be wrong
To feel this way
For so long (for so long)
Don't want to give up who I am
I couple lies just to please a man
I'm so confused
I'm telling you
Don't want to sing the blues
Why not me (why not me)
Is it a crime to be myself (myself)
To be who I was meant to be (ooh)
Why not me (why not me)
Doesn't everyone deserve to find that dream (to find that dream)
Why not me
I need a man whose got his own
Someone whose sensitive and strong
Tell me will I have to wait
Will tomorrow be too late
Why not me (why not me)
I want to know
I need to know
(Why not me)
Is it a crime to be myself (myself)
To be who I was meant to be (ooh)
Why not me (why not me)
Doesn't everyone deserve to find that dream (to find that dream)
Why not me
I want to know
I need to know (why not me)
Can you tell me why
Everybody needs someone who will be there for them
(Why not me)
Yes they do
They really do
They really need someone
Someone they-for that
(Why not me)
I need someone to be there for me
Don't you know I really need
I need to believe that there's someone (why not me)
I need a man whose got his own
I need him strong (why not me)
I need him now
Woo
Yes I do, I really do
I want to know
Yes I do

    This is how i feel because i feel like i was meant to be tall and i am still skinny and my dream is to be taller. I am skinny and i hate it. Could i be right or could i be wrong about wanting to be taller? My name is Jalen and i am a boy and i hate being skinny it is annoying being skinny is very annoying and being skinny makes me feel like i am different from everyone else and being skinny makes me feel like i don't fit in with everyone else.
