More Than Just the Spare

Anna:

Spare Am I really just the spare

I ' m not part of the town not born to be queen

Just somebody hopelessly inbetween

She ' s the scholar athlete poet

I ' m the screw up don ' t I know it

But then who could ever compare

Of course they ' re gonna think

I ' m just the spare

Well I won ' t care

So I ' m the extra button on a coat

In case another one comes loose

But if I have to be a button

Why can't I be a button that ' s of use oops )

I may lack style and I may lack grace

And once in a while I might fall on my face

But this little button deserves a place in the sky

This button wants to fly

Wait buttons can ' t fly

It doesn ' t make any sense

So I ' m a rusty horseshoe hanging up

Over somebody ' s old barn door

And I ' ll be hanging there forever

Just wishing the horse had one leg more

And maybe I can ' t be the perfect one

And maybe I err on the side of fun

But horseshoes need a chance to run somewhere

This horseshoe is more than just a spare

Someday I ' ll find my thing

A thing that ' s on my own

That thing that makes me part of something

Not just all alone

If only all this feeling I have in my heart

Could mean something to someone

How I ' d love to play that part

So I ' m just the second born sister

Who most of the town ignores

Like a button like a horseshoe

Like a girl who ' s bad at metaphors

Maybe I don ' t have a magic touch

And maybe I don ' t have a talent as such

Just this heart with much too much too share

So I ' ll never be the heir

But I ' m more than just a spare
