Just Like a Woman

Nobody feels any pain

Tonight as I stand inside the rain

Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes

But lately I see her ribbons and her bows

Have fallen from her curls

She takes just like a woman, yes, she does

And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does

And she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl

Queen Mary, she's my friend

Yes, I believe, I'll go see her again

Nobody has to guess that baby can't be blessed

Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest

With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls

She takes just like a woman, yes, she does

And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does

And she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl

It was raining from the first

And I was dying there of thirst, so I came in here

When your longtime curse hurts

But what's worse is this pain in here

I can't stay in here, ain't it clear that

I just can't fit?

Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit

When we meet again introduced as friends

Please don't let on that you knew me when

I was hungry and it was your world

Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes, you do

And you make love just like a woman, yes, you do

Then you ache just like a woman

But you break just like a little girl
