Bahamas - Alone lyrics

Alone one man
One man can change the mind of
A woman if he tries
He might use truth, he might use lies
And it don't seem to matter much of
What he says or what he does
As he tries in vain to show the
Kind of love he has to give
And through a sieve
The words go down the drain

Yes, men and women equal
But we're not the same

Alone one woman
One woman all alone she can change a man
She'll do all that she can
Trying hard to figure out
What's already been done
Before he was her husband
He was just some poor woman's son
And she's not suggesting someone else
Might be to blame just, men and women equal
But we're not the same

Alone we all start
We all start out alone and seek
A mystery all our own
So let the heart beat out it's ancient tone
And let all those lovers seek to find
To open up their hearts and open their minds
And may one take the other's last name

Yes, men and women equal
But we're not the same
