Slave Lyrics
(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)Listening for your footstepsJust waiting like a foolBurning with a feverOnly you can coolThe clock beside my pillowHas ticked away the nightLike a heartbeat mocking meUntil the lightGotta stop these thoughts about youGotta learn to live without youGotta find some freedom for this weary slave'Cause I'm hungry for youAnd I'm longing for youAnd I'm burning for youI worship your opinionsI imitate your waysI try to make you grace meWith a word of praiseHowever much I tell myselfThat I'm strong and free and braveI'm just another womanRaised to be a slaveSlave, nothing but a slaveMind of a slaveBody of a slaveI find I gave away the soulThat I wanted you to saveI'm just another womanRaised to be a slavehungry for youAnd longing for youBurning for youAnd I'm longing for youburning for youAnd I'm yearning for youLonging for you
