You don't know where you're going to turn

You squirm when the sweetness comes, you turn it into ammunition

With the use of a cynical smile, a typical defence

I can see you getting cold, so cold

In the sweetness it could clothe you

In the sweetness it turns yellow for your soul

In the sweetness it could hold you

But you stay blue with cool



She's there inside you, that woman

And she wants to let the heavens in

Softly now softly now

Inside you, that woman

Come on, let her bring the heavens in

Softly softly now



But you stand strong and here it comes

That something that you can say

To keep the tenderness at bay

Can't suck feeling from all that

It just stands up hard and strong

Like an aimless gun, like a loveless cum

You put armour on hte music in your soul

You put a maze into your garden

You put a spike inside your smile

And only your dreams can know that love is your aim



She's there inside you, that woman

And she wants to let the heavens in

Softly now softly now

Inside you, that woman

Softly now, softly softly softly softly now



I know she will be calling you

One day teh snake's going to charm you

All the way to paradise

Make sure she doesn't bite you first

You'll know when she's done this

You will feel a great divide

You will think that she is danger

You won't even know theway to say hello

You will think she means invader

When all the time she could have charmed you out of all this



She's there inside you, that woman

And she wants to let the heavens in

Softly now softly now

Inside you, that woman

Come on, let her bring the heavens in

Softly now

Softly now

Softly now



'cause don't you know the boys will appreciate her too

'cause she's been sleeping, sleeping

It's been a long long sleep

Kiss her she's your princess

She's your princess
