Woman

Woman

1. Woman

Woman

(verse 1)

the fog rolls from the beaches to the city streets

autumn wind finally meets

with me and shakes hands

conquers all my lands

a morning I won't soon forget

if I said I missed you more

I wonder if you'd accept that notion

I walk alone by the shore

I'm not really sure

if I'll walk solo into the ocean

when you come back from work

let's take a trip upstate

get lost in pancake stacks

at a B&B with low rates

you've given up

I gave it my all

a marriage headed for divorce

and a woman with no choice

it's like I've always told you

(chorus)

I'll be there by your side, for life

because we swore a vow

don't go forgetting all of that now

a man and his woman

it's like I've always told you

I'll be there by your side, for life

when you've seen that finally

I'll always be your uptown lady

our riches don't come cheaply

you should know

there's only one you for me

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

we've navigated storms before

sailing along countless shores

let's renew our vows

when the moment allows

let's grow stronger through weakness

don't let go of my hand

the importance is what I stress

I still feel like I just wore that white dress

and walked to you in your rented tux

we've come this far

we can't be next

it's like I've always told you

(chorus)

I'll be there by your side, for life

because we swore a vow

don't go forgetting all of that now

a man and his woman

it's like I've always told you

I'll be there by your side, for life

when you've seen that finally

I'll always be your uptown lady

our riches don't come cheaply

you should know

there's only one you for me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

don't say that we need a break

don't say there's nothing at stake

this family that we've grown

will die in this drought

it's like I've always told you

(chorus)

I'll be there by your side, for life

because we swore a vow

don't go forgetting all of that now

a man and his woman

it's like I've always told you

I'll be there by your side, for life

when you've seen that finally

I'll always be your uptown lady

our riches don't come cheaply

you should know

there's only one you for me

(end chorus)
