Women And I

(album: Songs From The Mardi Gras - 1991)

Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts
Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts

Never think for myself on rainy days
When every teardrop from a lover
Just gets washed away
Like the woman who once said
You can never understand my pain
You can never see my misery
My misery

But this is a man who understands the pain
I can give it and receive it
I can trust it and believe it
I can even learn to love it

Women and I always end up crying
Women and I always end up crying

Now just come to me sister
When I touch your face
For another woman's softness
I could never replace

The strength we had together
The heat made between us
The energy between our skin
The way we made each other cry
The way you stare into my eyes

Women and I always end up crying
Women and I always end up crying

But I can't give one good reason
Why I act like I do
But when I'm scared to death of holding on
Scared to death of letting go
I take it out on you

Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts
Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts

Like the woman who once said
You can never understand my pain
You can never see my misery
My misery

Women and I always end up crying
Women and I always end up crying

Women and I always end up crying
Women and I always end up crying

Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts
Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts

Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts
Women and I always end up
Breaking each others hearts
