Women Iii Lyrics

It took a lot of reasoning

Before she got to pleasing him

She made a combination

Of despair and inspiration

A mother and mistress

A sister to her sisters

A child who hoped her dreams come true

But now she's only stuck with you

At least she has a home to share

A man who comes to do her hair

A garden with a patio

A place to have a barbecue

The envy of her neighbors

Who smile and wave and ask her

If they could live for just a day

In luxury and ecstasy

But it's a long way home

From where she's come

It's a long way back

Too much to ask

The trash is in the garbage can

The mystery of Wonderland

One day she thinks of leaving him

The next she treats him like a king

She hears it on the radio

She sees it on the video

She waits until the kids have grown

And then she thinks she'll start again

But it's a long way home

From where she's come

It's a long way back

Too much to ask

Before she gave her friends a ring

She promised almost everything

They ran away to paradise

But everything will have its price

From woman number one

To woman number two

Now she's woman number three

And she thinks that she is lucky

But it's a long way home

From where she's come

It's a long way back

Too much to ask

From X Y Z
