"Woman Like You" lyrics
"Woman Like You"
You went out looking for yourself
What did you think you'd find? Uh huh
You thought that you would change the world
You just kept changing your mind, uh huh
You want a stairway to Heaven
But you won't take the journey one step at a time
Too long a climb, a climb
But a good-looking woman like you
Never had to wait for her dreams to come true
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do
Was be a good-looking woman like you
Wake through the door, you turn the heads
Let them think they stand a chance, uh huh
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Then you lead them to the dance, uh huh
You give a piece of your body
But still, you keep the darkness of a heart that's blind
It's weighing heavy on your mind
But a good-looking woman like you
Never had to wait for her dreams to come true
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do
Was be a good-looking woman like you, oh
Your book's been judged now, cover to cover
And time has made you one of the other
Every choice you made has been written on your face
And in-between the lines, you can find
The grace of a woman like you
Shouldn't have to wait for you dreams to come true
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do
Was be a good-looking woman like you
Oh, a good-looking woman like you
Shouldn't have to wait for you dreams to come true
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do
Was be a good-looking woman like you

Suzanne Vega - "Gypsy" You come from far away
With pictures in your eyes
Of coffee shops and morning streets
In the blue and silent sunrise
But night is the cathedral
Where we recognized the sign
We strangers know each...
Patty Griffin - "Let Him Fly" Ain't no talking to this man
Ain't no pretty other side
Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride
It would take an acrobat and I already tried all that
So I'm gonna let him fly
Things can...
Eva Cassidy - "Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain" In the twilight glow I see
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
And only memories remain
And through the ages...
Lisa Loeb - "Skeleton" If I'm gonna be honest
You're not the one to tell
Put it in my pocket
I'll keep it to myself
I wish you cared
At least you played it well
You got me
In all the silence
I tend to make things up
You...
