phpBB [audio] What Makes A Woman I was staring up at the dark night’s summer sky amazed by the distance I could see with my eye the stars whispered rumours of a beauty sublime that echoed back to the beginning of time like an innocent cartographer charting the unknown like an alchemist in search of the philosopher’s stone I sought to understand the wonders that I saw but my theories unravelled with just one flaw Chorus - I can tell you why water falls from the sky tell you how a tear is formed in the eye but for all my erudition, I don’t think I can tell you, what makes a woman love a man I could climb a ladder to the stars and pull down heaven’s fire burn like a flame with the purest of desire smoulder with the passion of a dragon in his lair float on filaments of gossamer and dance thru the air I could step out from my door and thru these valleys roam gather wisdom worthy of king Solomon’s throne eloquently expound upon the matters of this world but these inscriptions of the heart would leave me a fool - Chorus Bridge - she used to watch me play at the market left a five dollar bill that I’d save in my wallet she’ comin thru the doorway like sunshine pours into a room she’s got me writing verses like a weaver with a rainbow on his loom there are mystics who say that the universe is one and Galileo knew his heart circled the sun Newton could tell you why the apple fell but how do you explain this love when you’re under it’s spell I have looked upon the stars and wondered how it all began pondered my existence in the lines of my hand been haunted by a memory like a house by a ghost but it’s the mystery of you that puzzles me most - Chorus |
