You promised me things that meant a lot |
|
Said so much you just up and forgot |
|
What you said to me, about me |
|
You said, I was your strength, the air you breathe |
|
So, help me, honey, you're all I need |
|
To make my life complete |
|
Oh, yes, you did |
|
So then |
|
(Why, why don't you?) |
|
Why, why don't you, baby? |
|
(Make her the woman that you go home to) |
|
Make me the woman you go home to |
|
And not the one you leave behind |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Not the one you left to cry |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
With a smile, I fix your evening meals |
|
Iron your clothes, it ain't no big deal |
|
It's all a part of loving you |
|
(Loving you, yes, it is) |
|
Stick by your side through thick and thin |
|
Not laying awake to, ask where you been |
|
Cause you'd tell me if you wanted to |
|
(If you wanted to) |
|
Oh, yeah |
|
(Why, why don't you?) |
|
So, why, why don't you, baby? |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Make me the woman you go home to |
|
And not the one you leave behind |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Not that one that's left to cry and cry |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Make me the woman |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
You go home to |
|
Make me yours and you'll be mine to keep |
|
So full of joy, you wouldn't need to be |
|
On the other side of town |
|
Fooling around |
|
[Incomprehensible] is all you get |
|
Knowing this, you will never regret |
|
Finding yourself all around |
|
So |
|
(Why, why don't you?) |
|
Why? Why? |
|
Oh, good God Almighty, boy |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
And not that one that you leave behind |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Not the one that's left to cry and cry |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
I don't, I don't know what you want |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Make me your woman, oh, baby |
|
(Make her the woman you go home to) |
|
Oh, I don't know why |
|
(Make her) |
