Woman She Was Gentle |
Woman, she was gentle, she took me for awhile; |
When my soul was beaten, she held it like a child. |
Once there as another, she looked so much like you; |
She never could received these things that I’m telling you. |
La la la la la la la la |
She claimed she was the woman who knew the life I craved; |
Some would call her a savior while some would call her a slave. |
Her devotion, it betrayed me, always broke my thoughts, |
She stabbed me with the silence and I bled and called it love. |
La la la … |
But I was born a sailor with a sailor’s lonely life; |
She said the sea it frightened her, she couldn’t be the sailor’s wife. |
She said our love was sacred, I agreed it was blessed; |
While underneath we really knew neither one could be possessed. |
La la la … |
Now even you my love have come to expect too much; |
You should see you cannot reach for what you cannot touch. |
So I will wander through your wounds lookng for an honest scar, |
To teach me how to sing this song, now I will sing it well |
La la la … |
Woman, she was gentle, she took me for awhile; |
When my soul was beaten, she held it like a child. |
Like a child, la la la la la la. |
