Lyrics She's Always a Woman - Billy Joel

She's Always a Woman

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
And she can ruine 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 it
She can ask for the truth
But she’ll never believes it
And she’d take what you give her
As long as it’s free
Yea 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 and 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 bleeding
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
Oh she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She’s ahead of her time
Oh and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She’s frequently kind
And she’s suddenly cruel
But she can do as she pleases
She’s nobody’s fool
And she can’t be convicted
She has earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she’s always a woman to me
