When i saw the blossoms broke after the rain
Limp and sodden - when you wrote me again
Made me think of spiders i washed down the drain
Spiders ghosts - thrown back up again
Blessing all the birds that died so i could live
Be a woman - be a woman
Blessing all the birds that died so i could live
Be a woman - be a woman
Blessing all the birds that died so i could live
Be a woman - be a woman
Blessing all the birds that died so i could live
Be a woman - be a woman
When i see the blossoms broke after the rain
Limp and gray - when you wrote me again
Made me think of spiders i washed down the drain
Be a woman - be a woman
