Astronaut - Emezie

...

Everybody knew her name

Not too pretty, not too plain

Suttle beauty was her game

This girl who never dared complain

The way she stared out into space

The look she had upon her face

As if she had a dream to chase

And as if she had no time to waste

A delicate being

Dressed up in pink

And blue

...

A feeling so strong

I wonder what's wrong

With you

I asked her what she dreamed the most

To be a lawyer, doctor, teacher, coach

An astronaut, a game show host

First female president, rock the vote

She said

None of those are what I need

The things I seek are within me

Somethin's comin, can't you see

A way for love 'cause I believe

A feeling so strong

Couldn't be wrong

She said

A look of such longing

A wish of belonging

Somewhere

I'm waiting for my prince (Someone to hug and kiss)

An angel from above (He'll shower me with love)
