Lyrics
When a Man Wants a Woman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
when a man wants a woman
he says it's compliment
he says he's only trying to capture her
to claim her
to tame her
when he wants everything, everything of her
her soul, her love, her life forever and more
he says he's persuading her
he says he's porsuing her
but when a woman wants a man
he says she's threatening him
he says she's only trying to trap him
to train him
to taint him
when she wants anything, anything of him
his look, his touch, a moment of his time
he says she's demanding
he swears she's destroying him
why is it?
when a man wants a woman he's called a hunter
but when a woman wants a men she's called
a predator
