(Ben Peters)

When you look at me and tell me that you need me
You don't know how close I come to giving in
But I'm trying to be strong to keep from doing wrong
And I wish you wouldn't come to me again.

'Cause baby, I'm only a woman, only a woman
Can't you see my heart's not made of stone
I'm only a woman only a woman
So please till you are free leave me alone.

Don't you know it hurts to know her arms are holding you
And you know how much I wish those arms were mine
But darling till you are free don't reach out from me
For I don't want our love to be that kind.

'Cause baby I'm only a woman, only a woman
Can't you see my heart's not made of stone
I'm only a woman only a woman
So please till you are free leave me alone...
