    Extraordinary Heart - Feelings about how much of relationships are based on appearances, and what that leaves out. And about learning to value my own heart, even so. "They're not lookin' at me, with my ordinary face, They can't see, my extraordinary heart, Wait and see, though, some day I'll meet one Someone who sees from the start, my extraordinary heart."
    CD: Speak Out   Label: Independent
    Credits: Peg Fisher - lyrics, vocals Joe Schottman - recording mentor

    Story Behind the Song
    Het is short for hetero, as a note. Just in case anybody was wondering.

    Lyrics
    Extraordinary Heart - by Peg Fisher

    She had the body the het boys all drooled for
    Buxom blonde and everything in place
    I used to wince, I was so unlike her
    In this portly body, with this ordinary face
    Used to feel like I was stuck in a prison -
    Walls of flesh instead of stone,
    Hated spring, with the boys all lookin',
    Crowdin' round her, and I'm here on my own…

    They're not lookin' at me,
    With my ordinary face,
    They can't see
    My extraordinary heart
    Could it be
    I'll ever meet one?
    Someone who sees from the start,
    My extraordinary heart…
    Extraordinary heart.

    She kept her figure til they took it from her,
    Turned up dead, they called it suicide.
    Me, I think it was more like murder.
    Doesn't matter. Bottom line - she died…

    Now I'm still here in this portly body,
    Thinkin' maybe, "Ey, homely's not so bad."
    I still got me a life I can be livin',
    Thinkin' 'bout her, wishin' she still had.

    So what if
    They're not lookin' at me,
    With my ordinary face,
    They can't see
    My extraordinary heart
    Wait and see, though,
    someday I'll meet one -
    Someone who sees from the start,
    My extraordinary heart…
    Extraordinary heart.
