Uphill Battle

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I cried on your shoulder right there in the kitchen Our friends in the next room, so close they could listen And I don't know why I laugh when I cry I'm not the girl that you thought you were getting I'm way more complex, yeah I got them sharp edges I'm solid as ice, oh But I break all the time [Pre-Chorus 1] But if I were a different girl It'd be simpler, that's for sure Wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind? Always keep it breezy Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy [Chorus] No, I am who I am And I am a lot to handle You do the best you can But I am an uphill battle [Verse 2] You say I act like it's my job to get so emotional Hell it's my business to get so emotional About to lose it Just below the surface, ooh yeah Walking around with a knot in my stomach Got you so high but we're ready to plummet Going down, going down, going down, going down Oh no [Pre-Chorus 1] But if I were a different girl It'd be simpler, that's for sure Wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind? Always keep it breezy Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy [Chorus] No, I am who I am And I am a lot to handle You do the best you can But I am an uphill battle I'll be your solid ground And I'll be your biggest gamble You do the best you can, I know [Bridge] So baby baby keep on climbing I'll wrap my arms around you tight I'll take you to the highest mountain I'll take you to the top tonight [Pre-Chorus 2] If I were a different girl Yeah, it'd be simpler, that's for sure But you know you wouldn't get the sparks from the clash, the high from the crash The curse and the kiss, they will make this thing last [Chorus] No I am who I am And I am a lot to handle You do the best you can But I am an uphill battle I'll be your solid ground And I'll be your biggest gamble You do the best you can But I am an uphill battle, ooh An uphill battle An uphill battle, ooh
