Are you trying to put me on?
I turned around and it was gone.
Did I leave it in your car?
On a table in a bar?
Or in your bed between the sheets?
The places where we used to meet.
Wherever love has gone I need to know.

Cos she´s a woman,
Oh yeah, she´s a woman.
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma she´s a lady.
And I just love the way she moves,
the way she moves, Watch her.

When you left,
I didn´t know how I was going to forget you.
I was hanging by a thread and then I met her.
Selling pictures of herself to German business men.
Well, that´s all she wants to do.
Come on, come on.
I don´t want to try too hard.
I don´t want to wait too long.
I don´t want to live alone,
with all this crap that pulls me down.
Oh, tell me now,
how would it feel,
if I could touch you once again.
Where have you gone, where have you gone.
The moon has gone down on the sun, Oh yeah.
I know that you´re coming home.
You wouldn´t leave me on my own.
Everybody can´t you see,
she´s coming back to me.

Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didn´t die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
just so I could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel OK.
I felt OK.
Oh I felt sick and tired,
yes I did.
She lived at her father´s place,
played his records though they jumped.
Wore her body back to front.
I tried hard to make it work,
kissed her where she said it hurt
but I was always underneath.

She´s a woman,
Oh yeah, she´s a woman.
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma she´s a lady.
And I just love the way she moves,
the way she moves, Watch her.

I don´t know why you pretend,
that it causes you pain,
when you know very well,
you´re going to do it again.
You´re going to do it again
and again
and again
but can you keep it going all nite long?
I know it´s going to happen.
It might not be today.
It might not be tomorrow,
or even the day after,
but some time soon, you´ll see,
you´re going to come back to me.

Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didn´t die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
just so I could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel OK.
I felt OK.

Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didn´t die, I carried on.
Oh yeah I went with other women,
what else can I say?
I guess I kind of missed you,
whilst you were away.
Whilst you were gone.
