Melissa Etheridge Lyrics
"Enough of Me"

We were all wounded in some domestic war
I found you to settle my score
You looked like Father
You felt like Mother
My mind told my heart
There is no other

And I gave you my soul
And every ounce of control
I gave you my skin
And my original sin
And I gave you my pride and my side
Oh, my pride
Ain't that enough

I turned your dreams into lightning
Ain't that enough
I held the world back for you
Ain't that enough
I loved you past the point of dying
Ain't that enough of me for you

I was so sure one and one gave you one
My noisy love is coming undone
Now you leave like Father
Disappointed like Mother
And I know in my heart
There is no other

And I gave you my soul
And every ounce of control
And I gave you my shame
And my eternal flame
And I gave you my need and my seed
Oh, my need
Ain't that enough

I turned your dreams into lightning
Ain't that enough
I held the world back for you
Ain't that enough
I loved you past the point of dying
Ain't that enough of me for you

Why can't you hold on

And I gave you my soul
And every ounce of control
And I gave you my skin
And my original sin
And I gave you my shame
And my eternal flame
And I gave you my pride, I gave you my side
And I gave you my need, and my seed
Oh, my need
Ain't that enough

I turned your dreams into lightning
Ain't that enough
I held the world back for you
Ain't that enough
I loved you past the point of dying
Ain't that enough of me for you

I turned your dreams into lightning
Ain't that enough
I held the world back for you
Ain't that enough
I loved you past the point of dying
Ain't that enough of me for you, for you
