(Ian Hunter)
To love a woman
Lost and lonely through the night
My baby doesn`t hear me right
Cross my heart and hope to die
The words won`t come although I try
It`s there beneath me deep and strong
And when I speak it sounds so wrong
Oh cross my heart and hope to die
I`ll never know the reason why
You and I were so in love
And if the sun won`t shine
I`ll be warm enough for the both of us
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
Sometimes when I`m away from you
I love you more you know its true
Oh cross my heart and hope to die
This loneliness is good sometimes
And you`ll return smile over me
And I still can`t say what`s plain to see
But cross my heart and hope to die
You`ll never know how hard I try
You and I we fell in love
And if the sun won`t shine
I`ll be warm enough for the both of us
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
Loving a woman like you ain`t hard to do
You know it happens all the time
To love a woman another woman
To love a woman ain`t never been hard
(Cross my heart and hope to die)
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
So I`ll go on through this night
Wishing the words to come out right
Cross my heart and hope to die
This stubborn tongue`s gonna make me cry
Just accept me as I am
Understand I`m a quiet man
Cross my heart and hope to die
I dread the day you say goodbye
You and I we fell in love
And if the sun won`t shine
I`ll be warm enough for the both of us
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
To love a woman
