Woman
What do I do, what can I say
Where are the words to begin
You’ve laid me here this special day
Just to bless me once again
From the dust I’ve been created
But you saw an emptiness in my soul
You knew beforehand that I’d be frustrated
That my heart would probably grow cold
For a time you’ve laid me to rest
In order to restructure my flesh and bone
To provide a comfort and relieve my stress
So I’d not live in this world alone
Now that you’ve awaken me
There’s so much I want to learn
Of this beautiful sight I’m blessed to see
Causing a fire inside me that burns
In touching, it’s much softer that I
Then the arms begin to unfold
In my examination all I can do is cry
And I’m hearing things I’ve never been told
Lord, what’s the meaning of this
Teach me that I may truly understand
All these things I’m feeling from a kiss
Shows me what’s lacking in man
It stands right by my side
And looks me dead in my eyes
For with it I must provide
Lord this is your most awesome surprise
As we walk hand in hand
What words could I use?
Should I show love or just make demands?
It’s not something You’d want me to abuse
I don’t believe this could get any better
For so much is stirred up on the inside
There’s a thought of us coming together
This is where I’ll always abide
Now that I’ve been made complete
Words cannot express what you've woven
It stands by my side as my helpmeet
My God, I’m going to name it Woman
