[ti:I've Never Been a Woman]
[ar:Father John Misty]
[al:I Loved You, Honeybee]
[offset:0]
[00:15.09] Never been a woman
[00:17.44]
[00:21.29] But I know the pain
[00:24.45]
[00:27.87] The pain of labor
[00:30.78]
[00:34.07] And the warpath of age
[00:37.06]
[00:41.13] Been with so many
[00:43.85]
[00:47.30] Yet none have seen through
[00:50.30]
[00:53.83] Despite their intuition
[00:57.71]
[01:00.79] The extend of the route
[01:03.41]
[01:04.67] Oh yeah I've never been a woman
[01:11.79]
[01:14.44] Why must I befriend each
[01:17.34]
[01:21.24] And every girl
[01:24.14]
[01:27.43] I'm needing the lively lit bars
[01:32.10]
[01:33.77] This dying dark world
[01:36.93]
[01:40.55] I'm doped up on laughter
[01:43.83]
[01:46.85] They always oblige
[01:50.43]
[01:53.83] This emptiness in me
[01:57.77]
[02:00.54] With wet glassy eyes
[02:04.27] Oh yeah I've never been a woman
[02:10.55] But they've given me my life
[02:13.84]
[02:18.31] True love bears nothing
[02:20.95]
[02:24.44] In common with this
[02:27.31]
[02:31.10] This constant amusement
[02:33.97]
[02:37.64] Some ceaseless caress
[02:40.85]
[02:44.25] Yet I accept nothing
[02:47.65]
[02:51.08] No price could be paid
[02:54.26]
[02:57.84] The occasional miracle
[03:01.95]
[03:04.65] With Marissa or Jane
[03:08.34] Oh now I've never been a woman
[03:16.14]
[03:21.97] My time here is so brief
[03:25.18]
[03:28.53] I cannot pretend
[03:31.27]
[03:35.41] That I can sustain you
[03:38.03]
[03:41.49] Like this till the end
[03:44.53]
[03:48.38] Don't lie to the ladies
[03:51.75]
[03:54.88] It does not take words
[03:58.68]
[04:01.63] All it takes is an inkling
[04:04.97]
[04:08.30] That you they can cure
[04:12.03] Oh now I've never been a woman
[04:19.05] That much is sure
[04:21.41]
[04:26.11] Wandering hunger
[04:28.99]
[04:32.80] Grown and corrupt
[04:35.13]
[04:39.11] Lays waiting each moment
[04:42.27]
[04:44.13] While you tend while you selflessly touch
[04:48.66]
[04:52.89] Satisfy and sate her
[04:56.16]
[04:58.90] The only one in the room I can see
[05:02.72]
[05:05.96] Who's really being pleasured
[05:10.21]
[05:11.38] Is me is me is me
[05:16.75] Oh now I've never been a woman
[05:24.70]
[05:27.16] But I have known pain
