Alone

Alone

One man, one man can change the mind of a woman if he tries

He might use truth, he might use lies

And it don't seem to matter much of what he says or what he does

As he tries in vain to show the kind of love he has to give

And through a sieve, the words go down the drain

Yes, men and women equal

But we're not the same

Alone

One woman, one woman all alone she can change a man

She'll do all that she can

Trying hard to figure out what's already been done

Before he was her husband, he was just some poor woman's son

And she's not suggesting someone else might be to blame

Just, men and women equal

But we're not the same

Alone

We all start, we all start out alone and seek a mystery all our own

So let the heart beat out its ancient tone

And let all those lovers seek to find

To open up their hearts and open their minds

And though one of them may take the other's last name

Yes, men and women equal

But we're not the same
