When a Woman is Around lyrics
I don't pretend to know the ways of the world
A means to an end seems the way
Whoever has the most of whatever is best
All the better
May the best man win
An eye for an eye
Is a blind man's rule
I wasn't born to follow
I'm nobody's fool
Any other man
Can swoon and soar
Truth is seldom found
When a woman is around
Your folly
Your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry
Lose that Cheshire Grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
At the moment you could say I'm
Presently optimistic
Fuck the travails that bedevil
Put simply
For now
I acquiesce
Even now as it was then
So it will always be
The bridge has only widened
Lest your disguise is worthy
I was never born to lose
I belong to no party
Suspicion clouds a man's heart
When a woman is around
Your folly
Your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry
Lose that Cheshire Grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
Lose that Cheshire Grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
