A Woman's Love

A bullet to the chest/ ain't nearly as hard
As a woman who deals with a broken heart
You see they both leave scars/ but only one can be seen
The other stays hidden behind lost hope and dreams

So before you go hurting a woman/ remember the golden rule
Never go treating her like she's some kind of fool
Show her love and respect/ throw your pride out the door
She'll always be the one that you're yearning for

But if you ever have to hurt a woman/ You'll most likely leave a scar
And one would think that they wouldn't get very far
But while a womans heart may hurt/ enough to make a man give up
That woman will be the strongest around, all thanks to her love.

Dedicated to all the women that put up with us bone-headed men:)

This is really sweet for all the broken hearted women out there. My own heart breaks were always a bit superficial. I know some men who can't seem to get over a woman. Sometimes I think they get their hearts broken worse than those of us "the stronger sex" heehee. LUv ,Andrea
