This is my favorite song from Waitress. It comes at a low point for the main character, and the lyrics hit me right in the feels. At times it feels like it could be my life anthem:
She’s imperfect, but she tries
She is good, but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won’t ask for help
She is messy, but she’s kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine
I love how Jessie Mueller, the original Jenna, sings “She is lo-o-onely most of the time” so delicately.
Right now, happiness feels absolutely impossible. But I do love this song.
