actress Lyrics

She wanted to be an actress, nothing more

She'd put on mommy's shoes

And pretend audition for somebody's show

Somebody's part, somebody's role, somewhere to go

She wanted to be an actress on the stage

She'd beg her dad for lessons

And when dad said, it's your age, she'd dress the part

She thought the thing she dreamed she'd do, she'd use to start

And I look at her and think, am I letting this girl down

If I let being an actress fall to the wayside now

Not gone entirely, but not entirety

Now I'm more a double agent

I play, I write, I sing and I act too

And I love each little thing that I can do

But is it enough? Is it more? Is it less

When all she wanted was to be an actress
