I'm gonna be.


I'm gonna be. Not a star not a hero not a legend I ain't a force or an engine No, I'm just gonna be. I'm gonna see. Not the world not a wonder not a miracle I ain't a pilgrim or an oracle No, I'm just gonna see. I'm gonna feel. Not a rush not a spark not a song comin' I ain't a blaze or Dean Martin No, I'm just gonna feel. But don't think I won't be nothin' Won't see nothin' Won't feel nothin' Won't want nothin' And won't need nothin' I'm a woman on two feet I know my time's comin' I got a red heart and wide hands I'm gonna do and make I'm gonna stand.
