Aretha Franklin - The Woman Lyrics

Darling, the question has been answered
And you tried hard not to say
It would have come out anyway
What could you do?

Love, I wish
How could you have meant it?
How can you tell me that I was so deep?
So deep in your heart
Now think about the times that we spent apart
It wasn't true

I believed in you
Wanted to be the one at your side
Oh baby I'm not someone you can hide
Yeah

A woman and a woman and a woman
Through and through
And I ain't never loved nobody
The way I loved you

We're moving further from each other
Everyday and with your every game
And it's for sure baby, that it can't stay the same
I really deserve more
Two and two still makes four

I would have given oh all my love to you
Just for the love, hey for the love of a man
And I wasn't even, listen to this
I wasn't even in your plan uhhuh

A little plan will never, never, never, never make me stay
I wanted to be the woman at your side
There's only one thing I've got baby
Baby I've got my pride, yeah yeah yeah

A woman and a woman and a woman
Through and through, oh yeah
But I ain't never loved nobody
Hey I ain't never needed a man
I ain't never love a man the way I loved you

I wish you love, I wish you well
I love you more than I can tell
This is good boy and I won't be bad
It's now or never boy that's a fact
I'm starting over and I think of you
And remember the things we said and used to do
How could you choose to be so small
With a greater love who you heard call
I wish love, I wish you well
And I love you more than I can tell

Oh baby
I ain't never loved nobody,
I ain't never, never, never
Needed nobody ooh oh yeah
I ain't never loved nobody the way
Never loved a man the way that I loved you
Ooh oh baby I ain't lying
I ain't never loved a man the way
That I loved you oh sweet thing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You can tell everybody that I love you yeah
I love you with your sensitive way
I love you baby with your courageous ways
I love you, I love you, I love you, love you baby
When you look around just wave my love, yeah
I love you, love you, love you, love you babe, yes I do
With your strong fine thighs
And your sweet love, I love you
Anybody new in your life?
And with anybody new, really want you to love
Truly I won't refute
You can tell everybody that
