Middle point

I am still that girl
Who once put music first
I'm not so far gone
Though my face is creaking
Round my chin the worst

I still spring a step
Have some vigour yet
Can still survive the night
Dance on a beach
Get my clothes all wet

I am not giving in
Not being ruled by Next
Not complaining about my man
Going on diets
Doing quizzes about being under or being oversexed

I may not danger sport
I may not Nobel prize
But I'm still going
Still going my way
The funny, slow and not-sure-why way
Much to my surprise
