lyrics

And if my clumsy knees
Got scraped up on the sidewalk
Would they still carry me
On my mid-afternoon walk
To see my honeybee
To breath in all the flowers
Add honey to my tea
I’ll be there in half an hour

Could my body forgive me?
Could my body forgive me?

And if my little hands
Fumbled and dropped the ball
Would you still latch on tight
And hold them through the fall
My dearest sweetest peach
Starts to rot in my room
There’s hair lining the floor
Left behind by the broom

Could my body forgive me?
Could my body forgive me?

If I don’t own my body, then I own nothing at all
And if I don’t love my body, then I don’t love my home

And if my shaky shoulders
Could not learn to stand still
Would they still keep me strong
Or at least pretend they will
Would I look like a fool
Would you still want to love me
I ponder to myself
Staring at the sky above me

Could my body forgive me?
Could my body forgive me?
