Prima Donna



Try as I might

I'll never be so fortunate

As to spend forever by your side

Try as I do

I'll never be good enough for you

But I'll do my best to be everything that you need



Wishing and hoping

Has gotten me this far so far

And now I'm ready for something more

Wishing and hoping

Has left me all alone here

And I want to be good enough for you to keep me as your own



Make me your own...

Why don't you...



CHORUS:



And I I I

I'll never be your primadonna

That pedastal that you put me on

Is too lofty for me to fall down

And I I I

I'll never be your spotlight dancer

Too many chances that you'll keep me

Keep me on spinnin' around...

Around...



It's not what I am

That makes me what I've become

I won't change for the best dear, for you

It's not what I am

That makes you all that I want

But you'll always be perfect in my eyes eyes



Purest perfection

Why don't you....



CHORUS:



But I I I

I'll never be your primadonna

That pedastal that you put me on

Is too lofty for me to fall down

And I I I

I'll never be your spotlight dancer

Too many chances that you'll keep me

Keep me on spinnin' around...

Around...





So wouldn't you

Like to see me in satin and lace

Prettied up for the pretty boy

Ready for your little show

So wouldn't you

Love to see me with wonder and grace

Plieting and prancing

So all of the world would know



But baby I'll



CHORUS:



I'll never be your primadonna

That pedastal you put me on

Is too high from solid ground

III

I'll never be your spotlight dancer

Too many chances that you'll keep me

Keep me

That you'll keep me around



Keep me

Why don't you

Keep me



Baby

Keep Me Around
