Abbey Lincoln - A Part of Me/There Are Such Things lyrics

A natural fool, another race, holding court right in my face With a spacey, toothy grin, sayin' ain't nobody in Just a pure and natural waste, have you seen her anyplace? This is only for your ear I'm supposed to keep her here Unlucky little hapless bright She'd be lost out in the night Don't even know enough to fear And suddenly she'll just appear Like a catch, a snag, a hitch Leave you standing in a ditch I keep saying to myself it's over, that's the end But it's so long , she's like a friend Like an old familiar itch , and as a fool, she's really rich Although I'm unaware now and then, I know she's there Living, gazing through my eyes The fool in me I realize The part of me that helps me be The part of me that's really me A heart that's true, there are such things A dream for two, there are such things Someone to whisper Darling you're my guiding star Not caring what you own but just what you are A peaceful sky, there are such things A rainbow high where heaven sings So have a little faith and trust in what tomorrow brings You'll reach a star because there are such things So have a little faith and trust in what tomorrow brings You'll reach a star because there are such things
