Lyrics Womankind - Annie Lennox

Womankind

One more time for the womankind
This is for the womankind
Check it out, check it out
One more time for the womankind
This is for the womankind
Check it out, check it out
Oh, baby’s got precious eyes and when he smile
The sun comes shining to make the day seem like
Each cloud contains a silver lining
I would be so happy if he belonged with me forever
But I know it’s not to be, it’s not part of my destination
Wish I had a lover who could turn this water into wine
I wish I had a lover who could give me loving any time
Wish I had so many things and all my wishes would come true
It’s got me thinking that I want to get too close to you
Check it out, check it out
Check it out, check it out
Hear my prayer, don’t you know I’m tired of waiting
Hear my prayer, won’t you give it a chance?
Hear my prayer, don’t you know I’m clearly statin'
I need to change this circumstance
You could be the best damn thing that hasn’t happened yet to me
You could be the best thing to come into my mythology
We could have the kind of dream, they call a great affinity
I want to turn it into something like reality
Hold me now, I’m tired of waiting
Hold me now, I’m asking you
Hold me now, no more anticipating
Why won’t you come to my rescue
To my rescue?
Oh, baby’s got precious eyes
And when he smiles the sun comes blasting
I wish that feeling of contentment could be everlasting
I would be so happy to give him all my dedication
I would be so happy but it’s so in my imagination
This is for the womankind
Singing for the womankind
Yeah, for the womankind
Here comes Adina
How many doors must I go through
These constant dreams that I pursue
I can see possibilities in you
Yeah, here we go again, is it all too good to be true?
Yeah, this thing called love, still don’t know what it is
Maybe I’ve had enough, oh save me please
All my wants are becoming needs
Tell me what she feels, too bare for you to see
Yeah, every desire go through the fire
This is what I give of me
If I could just be free
Baby, won’t you rescue me?
Every desire go through the fire
(Baby, won’t you rescue me?)
Every desire go through the fire
(Baby, won’t you rescue me?)
Lay me now, I wanna be under your skin
(Every desire go through the fire, every desire go through the fire)
Lay me now, I wanna be under your skin
(Every desire go through the fire, every desire go through the fire)
Every desire go through the fire
(Won't you rescue me?)
Every desire go through the fire
(Won't you rescue me?)
Every desire go through the fire
(Won't you rescue me?)
Baby won’t you rescue me?
