Shelf
lyrics by Sally Tomato
music by Carlos Severe Marcelin

here i am by myself
all alone on this shelf
there's more to me
than you see
and i hope you will learn to be

by my side on this shelf
i need you to be
right by me not alone
in your eyes i find my home

through time and distance
through your strong resistance
you and i have come to be

by ourselves on a shelf
all alone we will be
and I know there are no cages around me

(humming)

and we'll rise every day
to the world and we will stay
on our shelf happy and free
my friend in me

oh yeah, my friend in me
