I'm so tired of playing playing with this bow and arrow,
Gonna give my heart away, leave it to the other girls to play,
For I've been a temptress too long, yes!

Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be-------------- a woman,
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, un - chained, we're all looking at a different picture,
Through this new frame of mind, a thousand flowers could bloom,
Move over, and give us some room, yeah!

Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be----------- a woman,
I just wanna be a woman


So don't you stop being a man,
Just take a little look from out - side, when you can,
Sow a little tender - ness,
It don't matter if you cry-------

Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be----------- a woman,
I just want to be a woman, it's all I wanna be
is a woman

This is the be - ginning of for - ever, and ever-----
N.C.

So tired of playing playing with this bow and arrow,
Gonna give my heart away, leave it to the other girls to play,
For I've been a temptress too long, yes!

Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be------------- a woman
