Píseň: When A Man Loves A Woman

Interpret:
Percy Sledge
Album:
When A Man Loves A Woman
when a man loves a woman

can't keep his mind on nothing else

he'd trade the world for a good thing he's found

if she is bad he can't see it

she can do no wrong

turn his back on his best friend if he put her down

when a man loves a woman

spend his very last dime

trying to hold on to what he needs

he'd give up all his comforts

and sleep out in the rain

if she said that's way it ought to be

but the man loves the woman

i gave you everything i had

trying to hold on to your high class love

baby please dont treat me bad

when a man loves a woman

down deep in his soul

she can bring him such misery

if she plays him for a fool

he's the last one to know

loving eyes can never see

when a man loves a woman

he can do her no wrong

he could never hold another girl

yes when a man loves a woman

i know exactly how he feels

cause baby baby you're my world

when a man loves a woman

i know exactly how he feels

(song fades)
