feeling cold, feeling numb
feeling stupid, feeling dumb
feeling right, feeling wrong
feeling like I just don't belong
feeling up, feeling blue
feeling down yet feeling true
feeling caged, feeling free
feeling him loving me
feeling love, feeling pain
feeling touched, feeling sane
feeling ugly, feeling cute
the heart of the matter cuts to the root
feeling American, feeling french
If I could be both life would be a cynch
feeling friendly, feeling mean
feeling sly, feeling keen
feeling romantic, feeling warm
feeling harmonious, having sworn
feeling happy, feeling sad
feeling great then feeling bad
these are parts of me
all that you can see
but only if you care enough to see
all of me...........
