barbie princess and the pauper - i am a girl like you lyrics
anneliese (speaking)-
i’m savoring my first and last
taste of freedom before getting
married next week.
erika (speaking)-
at least, you’re not an
indentured servant.
anneliese (speaking)-
indentured servant?
erika-
if i’d like to have my breakfast hot
madame carp will make me pay,
and i have to fetch the eggs myself
and the barn’s a mile away.
it’s cold and wet
but still i get an omelette on my plate,
but in my head i’m back in bed
snuggled up and sleeping late.
anneliese (speaking)-
really?
erika (speaking)-
really. but it’s all right.
i mean, i’m used to it.
and you?
anneliese (speaking)-
well…
erika (speaking)-
well?
anneliese-
if i want some eggs i ring the bell
and the maid comes running in,
and she serves them on a silver tray
and she brings a cookie tin.
and while i eat, she rubs my feet
and strolling minstrels play,
but i’d rather be in my library
reading science books all day.
erika-
i’m just like you
anneliese (speaking)-
(you are?)
erika-
you’re just like me
there’s somewhere else we’d rather be
somewhere that’s ours
somewhere that dreams come true
yes i am a girl like you.
you’d never think that it was so
but now i’ve met you and i know,
it’s plain as day
sure as the sky is blue
i am a girl like you.
anneliese (speaking)-
so, you’re a singer?
erika (speaking)-
no, i work at madame carp’s penitentiary.
uh, i mean, dress emporium.
anneliese (speaking)-
i love madame carp’s dresses!
erika (speaking)-
i made the one you’re wearing.
anneliese (speaking)-
you made this? the design looks so complicated!
erika (speaking)-
oh, it isn’t really.
(sings)
first i choose a fabric from the rack
and i pin the pattern down,
and i st-tch it in the front and back
and it turns into a gown!
anneliese-
i wear my gown
without my crown
and dance around my room
both-
and imagine life without the strife
of an unfamiliar groom.
anneliese (speaking)-
but i’d never let my mother know.
i wouldn’t want to disappoint her.
erika (speaking)-
i completely understand.
anneliese-
i’m just like you
erika-
(i think that’s true)
anneliese-
you’re just like me
erika-
(yes i can see)
both-
we take responsibility
anneliese-
we carry through
erika-
(we carry through)
both-
do what we need to go.
yes i am a girl like you.
anneliese-
i’m just like you
erika-
(i’m just like you)
anneliese-
you’re just like me
erika-
(you’re just like me)
both-
it’s something anyone can see
anneliese-
a heart that beats
erika-
(a heart that beats)
both-
a voice that speaks the truth
yes i am a girl like you.
