Bring Back My Body (to me to me)

[Spectra]

LOL I'm a member of TOPS (take of pounds sensibly) and receive a monthly magazine and found this little gem on the back page. I thought I would share it sense it rings so true and made me smile

Bring Back My Body to Me

When I was a freshman in high school,
I wore such a tiny size 3.
But, burgers and French fries and ice cream
Soon stole my cute body from me.

CHORUS #1:
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me.

The day that I married my sweetheart,
My wedding dress was a size 10.
I learned to make pies and lasagna,
And soon I was gaining again.

CHORUS #1:
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me.

Then, after the births of my children,
I saw my hips starting to spread.
My ego went into a nosedive.
"I need some willpower" I said.

CHORUS #1:
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my body to me. x2

I tried every crazy new diet.
I'm glad that I finally found help.
For, when I we encourage each other,
The guilt and insanity stop.

CHORUS #2
We'll work. We'll try
To be everything we can be, can be.
We'll work. We'll try
To be everything we can be.

I know there won't be any magic
That brings back my body to me.
But, working our problems together,
We'll take off the pounds easily!

CHORUS #2
We'll work. We'll try
To be everything we can be, can be.
We'll work. We'll try
To be everything we can be.


Hope that brightens you day a little,

Good Luck
