I walked half way across this town

Singing in the pouring rain

I knew someway somehow

I had to see your smiling face

Some people need some time

Some people need their space

But when you're not in my arms

You're too far away (for)



Chorus



The love of a woman

The love of a woman like you

The love of a woman

There's nothing so strong and so true

I prayed to God above

And I've searched my whole life through

For the love of a woman

The love of a woman like you



My friends all ask me why

I lay my heart on the line

But somewhere deep down inside

They know exactly why

When it don't go like you plan

There's nothing that hurts so bad

But when it works like it should

There's nothing on earth known to man (like)



Chorus

I prayed to God above

And I've searched my whole life through

For the love of a woman

The love of a woman like you

For the love of a woman

The love of a woman like you
