I am just a woman that loved a man
But our house of love was built on sand
While it lasted it was grand, my love

We lived and loved, our day is through
But each night in dreams it starts anew
He comes to me as he used to do, my love

And then he holds my hand
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
Then I understand
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
Her eyes afire with one desire
Then a heavenly kiss, could I resist

And then he dims the light
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
And then he hmm-mm-mm
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
(Whistling)
He takes me to paradise

I am just a woman thats lost her man
I cant have him, so I do what I can
To get another, another man to love

He may not be just the same
He may be a beggar, he might be the king
He might be you, you, or you, I love him

If you will hold my hand
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
Then I will understand
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
With eyes afire I will know your desire
And then a heavenly kiss, could I resist

Then he will dim the light
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
Then you will hmm-mm-mm
Hmm-mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm-mm
(Whistling)
Ill take you to paradise
