Píseň: All A Woman Needs

Interpret:
Joan Armatrading
Album:
The Shouting Stage
Brings her flowers every day
And he phones her every night
Because she's his fancy
She's bound to love him too
And he's proved his feelings
He gives her all she needs
This boy can't understand


Though he holds her in his arms
He won't whisper words of love
He thinks it's all right
Love can come later


But woman
Love is all she needs
He will never get his way
With ease
He has to woo her properly
Or he'll never win her heart


Man likes to own
A woman shares
Man has his needs
A woman cares


Never means to make her cry


Oh he want this girl so bad
The boy can't understand
He thinks it's all right
Love can come later


But woman
Love is all she needs
He will never get his way
With ease
He has to woo her properly
Or he'll never win her heart
