The Woman Inside

by Wayne Hicks

I love the time that we spend together, feeling lonely when we’re far apart,

Babe I’m not trying to make you mine for ever, just want to find a place inside your heart,

Now there’s some in all the things that they say, one look at you is all it ever takes,

They take what they want and need your heart to break,

But I see those guys, they follow you around,

For the chance to break your heart and let you down,

(Chorus)

No, baby, they just can’t see, the woman standing in front of me,

All they look at is the part that you can’t hide,

But I’m not after what my eyes behold, I want the part of you that’s lonely and cold,

And if I fall in love, it’s gonna be with the woman inside,

Wasn’t that long ago my heart is breaking, and nothing on this earth to take my pain away,

Who’d believe you’d come along and save me, a little smile that brightens up my day,

I can’t see the future, I take it a day at a time,

Just knowing that you’re here keeps me feeling fine,

(Chorus)

No, baby, they just can’t see, the woman standing in front of me,

All they look at is the part that you can’t hide,

But I’m not after what my eyes behold, I want the part of you that’s lonely and cold,

And if I fall in love, it’s gonna be with the woman inside,

(Reprise)

No, baby, they just can’t see, the woman standing in front of me,

All they look at is the part that you can’t hide,

But I’m not after what my eyes behold, I want the part of you that’s lonely and cold,

And if I fall in love, it’s gonna be with the woman inside,
