Annie Lennox - Womankind lyrics

One more time for the womankind

This is for the womankind

Check it out

Ooh baby's got precious eyes

And when he smiles the sun comes shinin'

To make the day seem like each cloud contains a silver linin'

I would be so happy

If he belonged with me forever

But I know it's not to be

It's not part of my destination

I wish I had a lover who could turn this water into wine

I wish I had a lover who could give me love at any time

Wish I had so many things

And all my wishes would come true

It's got me thinkin' that I want to get too close to you

Hear my prayer

I'm tired of waitin '

Hear my prayer

Give it a chance

Hear my prayer

I'm clearly statin'

I need to change this circumstance

You could be the best damn thing

That hasnt happened yet to me

You could be the best thing

To come into my mythology

We could have the kinda dream they call a great affinity

Want to turn it into something like reality

Hold me now

I'm tired of waitin'

Hold me now

1'm askin' you

Hold me now

No more anticipatin'

Why won't you come to my rescue?

Ooh babys got precious eyes

And when he smiles

The sun comes blastin'

I wish that feellin' of contentment

Would be everlasting

I would be so happy

To give him all my dedication

I would be so happy

But its only my imagination

Ooh...

This is for the womankind

Ooh...

Singin' for the womankiho

Ooh...

Thats right for the womankind

Ooh...

How many doors must I go through

These constant dreams that I pursue

I can see possibilities in you

Yea here we go again

Is this too good to be true?

I had this thing galled love

Still don't know what it is

Maybe i've had enough

Oh save me please

All my wants are becoming needs

Tell me what you feel

Stripped bare for you to see

Yea every desire go through the fire

This is what I give of me

If I could just be free

Baby won't you rescue me?

Baby won't you rescue me?

Every desire go through the fire

Lay me down

I wanna be

Under your skin
