i'm only a woman

of flesh and bone

 an i wept much

 we all do

 i thought i might die alone

but i have

never never never never

never never never never

never never met you

 so baby be good to me

 i got nothing to give you, you see

 except everything, everything,

everything, everything,

 all the go-oo-oo-od and the bad

 'cause i've been bad

 i've lied, cheated, stolen and

 been ungrateful for what i had

 and i'm afraid habits rule my waking life

 i'm scared and i'm runnin' in my sleep for you

 but all the oceans, and rivers and showers

 will wash it all away and make me clean for you

'cause i have

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

never never never met you

 so lets take a loan out

 put it down on a house

 in a place we've never lived

 in a place that exists

 in the pages of scripts

 and the songs that they sing

 and all of the beautiful things

 that make you weep but

 don't have to make you weak

'cause i've

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

never never never never

 loved somebody the way

 that i loved you
