I Am She

[OLIVIA]
I have a confession to make
I sent you a ring, it was a stupid mistake
I was desperate for any excuse to get to see you again

Oh God, I'm embarrassed, you probably think I'm insane, do you think I'm insane?

[VIOLA}
I--

[OLIVIA]
It must be so obvious, isn't it obvious, I can no longer contain it
I've been shielding my feelings as I grieve
But now I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
And saying you see me for who I really am
My shame and my pride
I just can't hide from you
So put me out of my misery, 'cause
I am your woman, I am she
I am your woman, I am she

[VIOLA]
I pity you

[OLIVIA]
But pity is compassion, so that means you must feel passion for me

[VIOLA]
Not exactly

[OLIVIA]
Then tell me, please, what you honestly think of me now

[VIOLA]
I think you're fooling yourself

[OLIVIA]
Then so are you

[VIOLA]
Oh, honey, if only you knew

[VIOLA & OLIVIA]
I wish that you'd see me the way I want you to

[OLIVIA]
Your lover

[VIOLA]
Your friend

[OLIVIA]
You're sexy when you yell

[VIOLA & OLIVIA]
So put me out of my misery

[OLIVIA]
'Cause I am your woman

[VIOLA]
Not for me

[OLIVIA]
I am your woman

[VIOLA]
You'll never be

[VIOLA & OLIVIA]
You don't understand
I am not the person that I used to be lately
Try and see it through my eyes

[OLIVIA]
You make me feel like I could start over new

[VIOLA]
I wouldn't love me if I were you

[OLIVIA]
Well, I do

[VIOLA & OLIVIA]
So please put me out of my misery

[VIOLA]
'Cause you're not my woman

[OLIVIA]
I will be

[VIOLA]
I've got no woman

[OLIVIA (VIOLA)]
I am she
(Not for me)
I am she
(Not for me)
I am she
(Not for me)
I am she
(Not for me)
I am she
