Only A Woman Knows
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.
Five in the morning
And her water just broke
She's scared and she starts to cry
Her husband says, "Honey,
You don't have to worry
Cause I'm right here by your side"
Well, she loves him for trying
But there's just some things he can't understand
So she calls up her sister
Who has comfort to give her
'Cause with something as deep as this goes
Only a woman knows
That baby's all grown now
She's moved to another town
Making her way on her own
But here she is calling
At two in the morning
Small lost voice on the phone
Daddy says, "Honey, what's the matter?"
But she asks for her mama instead
So mama drives 'til the dawn breaks
To soothe her girl's heartache
It's so painful when innocence goes
Only a woman knows
Bridge: A mother, a lover a friend
From her first breath 'til the very end
Now mama's a soldier
Her daughter consoles her
Together they're fighting this war
Love and chemo their weapons
A curse and a blessing
Hair falls like leaves to the floor
Doctors nurses and neighbors
And her husband stand by in the hall
As time turns the daughter
To the role of the mother
For something as deep as this goes
Only a woman knows
