Always a Woman — текст песни (Chantal Kreviazuk)

Words & music: billy joel



** chantal often played this song while touring for under these rocks & stones. a hit in the late 70s for piano man billy joel, to whom she has often been compared, chantal sometimes modified the lyrics to "shes always a woman, like me." these lyrics are accurate to her live version. **



She can kill with a smile

She can wound with her eyes

And she can ruin your faith with her casual lies

And she only reveals what she wants you to see

She hides like a child

But shes always a woman like me



She can lead you to love

She can take you or leave you

And she can ask for the truth

But shell never believe you

And shell take what you give her as long as its free

She steals like a thief

But shes always a woman to me



Oh, she takes care of herself

She can wait if she wants

Shes ahead of her time

Oh, and she never gives out

And she never gives in

She just changes her mind



She will promise you more

Than the garden of eden

Then shell carelessly cut you

And laugh while youre bleeding

But shell bring out the best

And the worst you can be

Blame it all on yourself

cause shes always a woman to me



Oh, she takes care of herself

She can wait if she wants

Shes ahead of her time

Oh, and she never gives out

And she never gives in

She just changes her mind



She is frequently kind

And shes suddenly cruel

She can do as she pleases

Shes nobodys fool

But she cant be convicted

Shes earned her degree

The most she will do

Is throw shadows at you

But shes always a woman to me



Mmm, mmm, mmm mmm mmm, mmm
