If I could
I'd be your little spoon
and kiss your fingers
forevermore
But big spoon
you have so much to do
and I have nothing
ahead of me
You're the sun
You've never seen
the night
but you hear its song
from the morning birds
Well I'm not the moon
I'm not even a star
but awake at night
I'll be singing to the birds
Don't wait for me
I can't come
Your mother
wouldn't approve of
how my mother raised me
but I do
I think I do
And you're an
all-American boy
I guess I couldn't help
trying to be
your best American girl
You're the one
You're all I ever wanted
I think I'll regret this
Your mother
wouldn't approve of
how my mother raised me
but I do
I finally do
And you're an
all-American boy
I guess I couldn't help
trying to be
the best American girl
Your mother
wouldn't approve
of how my mother raised me
but I do
I think I do
