Humble Me


The most thing I find captivating about music is the lyrics. Lyrics define a song and sometimes has the power to effect a person. The song from Norah Jones "Humble Me" is the most powerful song of hers in my opinion and I just wanted to share the words with you


Humble Me


Went out on a limb Gone too far I broke down at the side of the road Stranded at the outskirts and sun's creepin' up


Baby's in the backseat Still fast asleep Dreamin' of better days I don't want to call you but you're all I have to turn to


What do you say when it's all gone away ? baby I didn't mean to hurt you truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart no matter how hard you resist it it never rains when you want it to


You humble me Lord You humble me Lord I'm on my knees empty You humble me Lord You humble me Lord Please, please, please forgive me


Baby Teresa she's got your eyes I see you all the time When she asks about her daddy I never know what to say


Heard you kicked the bottle And helped __ build the church You carry an honest wage Is it true you have somebody keeping you company ?


What do you say When it's all gone away ? Baby I didn't mean to hurt you Truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart No matter how hard you resist it It never rains when I want it to


You humble me Lord You humble me Lord I'm on my knees empty You humble me Lord You humble me Lord Please, please __ forgive me
