The Woman

[Verse 1] Darling, the question has been answered And you tried hard not to say It would have come out anyway What did you do? How could you have meant it, oh, when you told me I was so deep, so deep in your heart Now think about the times we spent apart It wasn't true I believed in you Wanted to be the one at your side, oh baby I'm not someone you can hide Yeah [Chorus] A woman and a woman and a woman Through and through And I ain't ever loved nobody The way I loved you [Verse 2] We're moving further from each other Every day and with your every game And it's for sure, baby, that it can't stay the same I really deserve more Two and two still makes four I would have given all of my love to you Just for the love, hey, for the love of a man And I wasn't even—listen to this I wasn't even in your plan A little plan will never, never, never, never make me stay I wanted to be the woman at your side There's one thing I've got, baby Baby, I've got my pride [Chorus] A woman and a woman and a woman Through and through, oh yeah But I ain't ever loved nobody Hey, I ain't never needed a man I ain't never loved a man the way I loved you [Bridge] I wish you love, I wish you well I love you more than I can tell This is good, boy, and I won't be bad It's now or never, boy, and that's a fact I'm starting over and I think of you And remember the things we said and used to do How could you choose to be so small With a greater love who heard your call I wish love, I wish you well I loved you more than I can tell Oh baby I ain't ever loved nobody I ain't never, never, never, never needed nobody Oh yeah, I ain't ever loved nobody The way, never loved a man the way I loved you Ooh, oh baby, I ain't lying I ain't ever loved a man the way I loved you Oh sweet thing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
