Nobody feels any pain, tonight as I stand outside the rain
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes
But lately he sees her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls
She takes just like a woman, yes, she does
And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl
Queen Mary she's my friend, yes, I believe that I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess, that baby can't be blessed
Till she finally finds out that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pills
Well, she takes just like a woman, yes, she does
And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl
And it was raining from the first and I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long time curse hurts but what's worse is this pain in here
I can't stay in here, ain't it clear
That I just don't fit, yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again, introduced as friends
Well, please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
Oh, I fake just like a woman, yes, I do
And I make love just like a woman, yes, I do
And I ache just like a woman
But I break, yes, I break just like a little girl
She takes just like a woman
(She makes love)
She makes love just like a woman
(She takes love)
She aches just like a woman
(Oh, but she breaks, yes, she breaks)
She takes just like a woman
(Yes, she does)
And she makes love just like a woman
(Yes, she does)
And she aches just like a woman
(Yes, she does)
