Woman in Chains by Tears for Fears

LYRICS 


You better love loving and you better behave
You better love loving and you better behave
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Calls her man the Great White Hope
Says she's fine, she'll always cope
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
Trades her soul as skin and bones
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Men of Stone
Men of Stone
Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds Time can't heal
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
It's under my skin but out of my hands
I'll tear it apart but I won't understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
So Free Her
So Free Her

LYRICS  only dreamed that I would find A loving heart, an open mind to see the real me And I hoped that you would be the one A chance to talk, a chance to grow I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow I've found the words I need to say Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Now I know that you are mine You bring me your love and peace of mind You see the real me and I know that you're the key Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly, awkwardly You're all I want, all I need you to be Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Just you,
