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 did you do?
How could you have meant it, oh
When you told me
I was so deep, so deep in your heart
Now think about the times 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 ever loved nobody
The way I loved you

We're moving further from each other
Every day 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 all of 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
A little plan will never, never, never
Never make me stay
I wanted to be the woman at your side
There's one thing I've got, baby
Baby, I've got my pride

A woman and a woman and a woman
Through and through, oh yeah
But I ain't ever loved nobody
Hey, I ain't never needed a man
I ain't never loved 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, and 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 heard your call
I wish love, I wish you well
I loved you more than I can tell oh baby
I ain't ever loved nobody
I ain't never, never, never
Never needed nobody
Oh yeah, I ain't ever loved nobody the way
Never loved a man the way I loved you
Ooh, oh baby, I ain't lying
I ain't ever loved a man the way I loved you
Oh sweet thing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You can tell everybody that I love you, yeah
I love you with your sensitive ways
I love you, love you, love you, love you
Baby with your courageous ways, I love you
Yes I do
I love you, love you, love you, love you
Baby with your strong sly sighs
And your sweet lies 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
