He told her that he loved her
And she believed he did
But he never found the way to let it show
How many times did she walk that floor for him
These are things that only a woman knows

And what about the flowers and the cards he never sent
The little things you do to make love grow
What she'd give if he had held her every now and then
These are things that only a woman knows

'Cause only a woman knows what it's like
To wait for a man to open up his eyes
And when she leaves he wonders why she goes
These are things that only a woman knows

She gave all she had
'Til there was nothin' left to take
It's his turn to look deep inside his soul
And if he'll change will she come back
Or will it be too late
These are things that only a woman knows

'Cause only a woman knows what it's like
To wait for a man to open up his eyes
And when she leaves he wonders why she goes
Lord, these are things that only a woman knows

Yeah, these are things that only a woman knows
