Looks like she really did you in
You're a broken hearted lover
Just tryin' to recover
You need to find a place to mend
All your time ain't necessary
But I don't wanna be a temporary thing
So gimme just half a chance

[chorus]
When this woman loves a man
She'll do anything she can
To keep the fire alive in your soul
And when all the chips are down
I'm still gonna be the one around
To build you up and be your friend
When this woman loves
When this woman loves a man

Don't play it cool, no don't be shy
Oh, there's no need to worry
No, I'm not in a hurry
So let your conscience be your guide, boy
Come here and let me show you
Just how much I adore you
Let me help you understand

[chorus]
When this woman loves a man
She'll do anything she can
To keep the fire alive in your soul
And when all the chips are down
I'm still gonna be the one around
To build you up and be your friend
When this woman loves
When this woman loves a man
Ooh, yeah

When this woman loves a man
She'll do anything she can
To keep the fire alive in your soul
And when all the chips are down
I'm still gonna be the one around
To build you up and be your friend
When this woman loves
When this woman loves a man, ooh yeah

When this woman loves
When this woman loves a man
