One more time
For the womankind
This is
For the womankind
Check it out
Ooh
Baby's
Got precious eyes
And when he smiles
The sun comes shinin'
To make the day
Seem like each cloud
Contains
A silver linin'
I would be so happy
If he belonged
With me forever
But I know
It's not to be
It's not part
Of my destination
I wish I had a lover
Who could turn
This water into wine
I wish I had a lover
Who could give me love
At any time
Wish I had
So many things
And all my wishes
Would come true
It's got me thinkin'
That I want to get
Too close to you
Hear my prayer
I'm tired of waitin '
Hear my prayer
Give it a chance
Hear my prayer
I'm clearly statin'
I need to change
This circumstance
You could be
The best damn thing
That hasn't happened
Yet to me
You could be
The best thing
To come
Into my mythology
We could have
The kinda dream
They call
A great affinity
Want to turn it
Into something
Like reality
Hold me now
I'm tired of waitin'
Hold me now
1'm askin' you
Hold me now
No more anticipatin'
Why won't you come
To my rescue?
Ooh
Baby's got
Precious eyes
And when he smiles
The sun comes blastin'
I wish that feellin'
Of contentment
Would be everlasting
I would be so happy
To give him
All my dedication
I would be so happy
But it's only
My imagination
Ooh
This is
For the womankind
Ooh
Singin'
For the womankind
Ooh
That's right
For the womankind
Ooh
How many doors
Must I go through
These constant dreams
That I pursue
I can see
Possibilities in you
Yea here we go again
Is this too good
To be true?
I had this thing
Called love
Still don't know
What it is
Maybe i've had enough
Oh save me please
All my wants
Are becoming needs
Tell me
What you feel
Stripped bare
For you to see
Yeah
Every desire go
Through the fire
This is
What I give of me
If I could
Just be free
Baby
Won't you rescue me?
Baby
Won't you rescue me?
Every desire go
Through the fire
Lay me down
I wanna be
Under your skin
