Boy meets girl it's a delicate thing

So much time spent wondering if

What you see is what you get

I keep looking for a friend and a lover

When I find one he ain't the other

Sometimes, I just want to quit

One wants a maid one needs his mother

They either want space or they want to smother me

And my poor heart needs somebody who



Can take it like a man, steady and strong

Not a lot of fuss and carrying on

True to a promise I can ride in a storm

Take it like a man who knows about love

And every little things that a girl dreams of

Someone wise enough to understand

If you want this woman's heart

Take it like a man



I met somebody the other night

Started thinking he was Mr. Right..wrong

I might have never known

If a friend hadn't brought it to my attention

He's got a wife he forgot to mention

Girl, leave that fool alone

I keep hoping and telling myself

Somewhere there's one good one left

'Cause my poor heart need somebody who



Can take it like a man, steady and strong

Not a lot of fuss and carrying on

True to a promise I can ride in a storm

Take it like a man who knows about love

And every little things that a girl dreams of

Someone wise enough to understand

If you want this woman's heart

Take it like a man



Take it like a man, steady and strong

Not a lot of fuss and carrying on

True to a promise I can ride in a storm

Take it like a man who knows about love

And every little things that a girl dreams of

Someone wise enough to understand

If you want this woman's heart

Take it like a man

Take it like a man

Well honey if you want my heart

You gotta take it like a man

Take it like a man
