When the fire, it was burning
But I know, I should have been learning And my pockets were full of money I had someone, yes I did, to call my honey And it's love that makes a woman And it's love that makes a woman Something told me that this wouldn't last My money is in the past I had to swallow all my pride And admit to myself deep down inside Diamonds and pearls, I, I've had enough But I feel so much better dressed in love And it's love that makes a woman And it's love that makes a woman What she is, yeah, what she is, hey, yeah And it's love that makes a woman And it's love that makes a woman What she is, yeah, what she is, hey, yeah It's love, it's love, it's love That makes a woman |

Oh, majesty of life, please don't escape me.
It's getting later and the windowshades are drawn. I'm not the best that I could be But I'm trying to wait and see What can happen to a girl in her hometown Chorus: Oh, the wilderness The unmade bed The aching head And oh the greying afternoon The diary that ends too soon Oh sweet belief in love, I know you're somewhere No love is perfect but a true one must exist It's getting farther down the year I hope my autumn eyes will clear And let me recognize his soul When we have kissed Repeat Chorus |

He's got front wheel drive, lots of money, but he don't scare me
He's the trigger, I'm the gun--he just does not scare me Chorus: man, you know he's so uptown, I'm so earthbound He sez "ride the elevator! do it now or do it later" How far we fall when we get off the wall, and We ride the elevator Schoolgirl annie sez he's uncanny but he don't scare me She throws rose petals, he shows his medals, but he don't scare me Repeat chorus He is just a comedian and he don't scare me He can squeeze a woman like a milk-fed hen but he don't scare me Repeat chorus |

You've got the cool water
When the fever runs high And you've got the look of love Right in your eyes And I was in a crazy motion Till you calmed me down It took a little time But you calmed me down Some people never say the words "I love you" It's not their style to be so bold Some people never say the words "I love you" But like a child They're longing to be told They've got a wall in China It's a thousand miles long To keep out the foreigners They made it strong And I've got a wall around me That you can't even see It took a little time To get next to me If something goes wrong I'm the first to admit it The first to admit it But the last one to know If something goes right Well, it's likely to lose me It's apt to confuse me Because it's such an unusual sight Oh I can't get used to something so right Something so right Some people never say the words "I love you" It's not their style to be so bold Some people never say the words "I love you" But like a child I'm longing to be told They've got a wall in China And I've got a wall around me It took a little time To get next to me |

We're children at the awkward stage
With moods we can never show That's why it's best to turn this page and go Just go--just go--just go--just go Chorus: You never stay around when I'm feeling fine You're back in time for pain And so my love some bad news Your ring fell down the drain You're staring so I turn my head My eyes give it all away It hurts to know we still have things to say To say To say To say To say Repeat chorus You're leaving but I'm not afraid Or lost without company I'll spend this time with somone new Me, it's me, it's me, it's me Repeat chorus |

Thank you but I'm just looking
Shopping endless malls, waiting for phone calls It rings--it's you--all right--the middle of the night I'm the forgotten fledgling Grounded by broken song, just a sparrow of The blues, till you come by--the middle of the night Trapped inside of my tired tv I survive until you rescue me--yeaahh Then I forget appointments Future's so far like mercury, moon and mars You're here, turn out--that light The middle of the night |

She loved a man who was sweet and lean
With a madison avenue scar And wherever he went to get away He took their luxury car Where can you run When the old house shakes And it's too hot to make any plans The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes 'cause you know that you chose the wrong man Chorus: Electra, the spirits tease High up a bluff And down on her knees She's looking down At kingdom come Come back electra Don't jump, don't jump! With a camera, he caught the mood When a pen he caught what she thought And everything worth having he mistook For something you bought Where can you run When the old house shakes And it's too hot to make any plans The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes 'cause you know that you chose the wrong man Repeat chorus: |
