Another Women
I took her in, more mother then friend
now she's in your arms
and my heartaches begins
I'm your women, I'm your wife
I'm the one who shares your life
can she hold you tenderly
even tho you still love me
does she watch you as you sleep
or hold you close when you weep
and if she can do all these things
then I'll take off my wedding ring
can she be your helper
when you need a helping hand
or keep you company
when you just need a friend
a mother to your children
a housewife in your home
can she do all these things
when I'm gone
a cook in your kitchen
a maid in your den
but most of all darling
can she just be a friend
a lover at night
when you hold her tight
a saint by day
when you go away
can she be all that I've been
and if she can, then our love's
come to an end
Another women in your life
not just a women
and not your wife
but if she can be all this
then I'll pack my things
and move on out
but can she love you
the way I do
and can she be the one
that's true
and if she can do
all these things
then I'll give her
our wedding rings....
THIS WAS WRITTEN IN JULY 1 1982
