Lyrics When a Woman Loves a Man - Paul Kelly, Paul Grabowsky

When a Woman Loves a Man

When a woman loves a man it’s stronger than the sun
So unfolds the hidden plan that won’t stop once begun
Her light comes shining
Inside him little tender blooms expand
When a woman loves a man
Ever since the world began
When a woman gives herself she goes out on a limb
Her body cannot help but tell the story that’s within
She pours her trust in him
And all she asks is that he understands
The gift he holds in his hands
When a woman loves a man
Water carving out a canyon
Sure gets deeper over time
A woman’s love seeks its companion
As freshwater seeks the brine
Her streams, hills and valleys
Her sweet home — the whole damn country in the palm of his hand!
Springtime all across the land
When a woman loves a man
Ever since the world began
When a woman loves a man
Get ready for the tender plan
When a woman loves a man
