What Every Woman Wants - Proverbs 5

She is dreaming of her Adonis,

He¹s a tall and handsome man

He works somewhere in the city

For a dealer from Japan

And he will often bring her flowers

And occasionally they'll dine

In a small familiar restaurant

Where they pass a pleasant time.

And his heart's desire is that the flame

And fire of their love will never die

And if sometimes she feels a little down at heel,

well she knows he'll never mind

For he doesn't care if her tangled hair

Doesn't shine like some Mary Quant

And to her it seems, this man of her dreams

Is what every woman wants.

He is dreaming of a woman

And her hair is fiery red

And it tumbles on her pillow,

Where she's lying in their bed

She will give her love completely,

There's abandon in her arms

There's a recklessness embracing

And submission in her charms.

And she doesn't mind if he's feeling tired,

When he comes home late from work

Or if all his plans fail, she'll understand

For she knows his pride is hurt

And she'll not compare, no she wouldn¹t dare

And she'll never tease or taunt

And of her, he dreams, 'cause she makes him feel,

He¹s what every woman wants.

Well then he looks up from his paper

And he catches in her eyes

Some sweet sparkle of remembrance

that he barely recognise

If she knew what he'd been thinking,

Or if his thoughts to her were clear

In his heart a pain is aching,

On her cheek there falls a tear.

And the spoken word that they seldom heard,

Starts to flow like a crystal stream

And the whispered prayer that they'd lost to care,

Starts to banish alll those dreams

And the loving touch, that they missed so much,

What they really knew all along

Was in their Father's hand, it was always planned,

They¹d have everything they want.

And with downcast eye they will realise

All those wasted, wanting times

Where a hostage made to a debt once paid

By the loving heart of Christ

And as His Spirit flows in their hearts they know,

They won't need those dreams that haunt

For in His eyes they see they'll never need,

He is everything they want.
