She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes.
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child
But she's always a woman to me.

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you.
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe
And she'll take what you give her,
As long as it's free.
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me.

Oh, she takes care of herself.
She can wait if she wants.
She's ahead of her time.
Oh, well she never gives out,
And she never gives in,
She just changes her mind.

And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden.
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me.

[Interlude]

Oh, she takes care of herself.
She can wait if she wants.
She's ahead of her time.
Oh, well she never gives out,
And she never gives in,
She just changes her mind.

She's frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me.

Lalalalalala
I love you, mommy
