Just like a woman

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand here in the rain.
Everybody knows that baby´s got new clothes,
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.
She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.
Queen Mary, she´s my friend.
Yes I believe I´ll go see her again.
Nobody has to guess that baby can´t be blessed
´Till she finally sees that she´s like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls.
She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.
It raining at first, and I was dying there of thirst,
So I came in here.
And your long-time curse hurts, but what´s worse
Is this pain in here.
I can´t stay in here.
Ain´t it clear...
That I just can´t fit.
I believe it´s time for us to quit.
But when we met again and are introduced as friends,
Please don´t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry, and it was your world.
You take just like a woman.
You make love just like a woman.
And then you ache just like a woman.
But you break just like a little girl.
Tonight as I stand here in the rain.
Everybody knows that baby´s got new clothes,
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.
She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.
Queen Mary, she´s my friend.
Yes I believe I´ll go see her again.
Nobody has to guess that baby can´t be blessed
´Till she finally sees that she´s like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls.
She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.
It raining at first, and I was dying there of thirst,
So I came in here.
And your long-time curse hurts, but what´s worse
Is this pain in here.
I can´t stay in here.
Ain´t it clear...
That I just can´t fit.
I believe it´s time for us to quit.
But when we met again and are introduced as friends,
Please don´t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry, and it was your world.
You take just like a woman.
You make love just like a woman.
And then you ache just like a woman.
But you break just like a little girl.
