When a woman loves
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.
You can buy her things
Shiny diamond rings
All those kind of things you think she needs from you
You can hold her tight, promise all the stars in the sky
But that won't get you very far
'cause that won't get you in her heart
Something deep and true is what she needs from you
(CHORUS)
When a woman loves
She loves with everything
She can touch your heart
And steal your soul
But you've got to earn her trust
To feel her touch
To be the one she's loving
When a woman loves
She's got needs inside that won't be denied
Said the girl's not satisfied with just a line from you
She needs tenderness
All your heart and soul and nothing less
Love that's true and kind and strong
To stand right there through right or wrong
Something deep and real
Something her heart can feel
(CHORUS)
I need something real from you
Something i can feel from you baby
Because one thing is true
When a woman loves
She loves with everything
She can touch your heart
And steal your soul away
But you've got to earn her trust
To feel her touch
To be the one she's loving
When a woman loves
You've gotta win her trust
To be the one
To get her love
When a woman loves
