One more time for the womankind
(This is for the womankind)
Check it out

Oh baby’s got precious eyes
And when he smile
The sun comes shining
To make the day seem like
Each cloud contains a silver lining
I would be so happy if he belonged with me forever
But I know it’s not to be
It’s not part of my destination

Wish I had a lover
Who could turn this water into wine
I wish I had a lover
Who could give me loving any time
Wish I had so many things
And all my wishes would come true
It’s got me thinking that I want to get too close to you

Hear my prayer
Don’t you know I’m tired of waiting
Hear my prayer
Won’t you give it a chance
Hear my prayer
Don’t you know I’m clearly statin'
I need to change this circumstance

You could be the best damn thing
That hasn’t happened yet to me
You could be the best thing
To come into my mythology
We could have the kind of dream
They call the great affinity
I want to turn it into something like reality
Hold me now
I’m tired of waiting
Hold me now
Hold me now, I’m asking you
Hold me now
No more anticipating
Why won’t you come to my rescue

Oooh, baby’s got precious eyes
And when he smiles the sun comes blasting
I wish that feeling of contentment
Could be everlasting
I would be so happy
To give him all my dedication
I would be so happy
But it’s so in my imagination

This is for the womankind

How many doors must I go through
These constant dreams that I pursue
I can see possibilities in you
Yeah here we go again
Is it all too good to be true
Yeah this thing called love
Still don’t know what it is
Maybe I’ve had enough
Oh save me please
All my wants are becoming needs
Tell me what she feels
Too bare for you to see
Yeah every desire go through the fire
This is what I give of me
If I could just be free
Baby, won’t you rescue me

I want to be under your skin
