Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me
Transcending space and time
And I was rendered still
There were no words for me to find at all
As I stood there beside myself
I could see you and no-one else
When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the same
Only once in a lifetime love rushes in
Changing you with the tide
And dawn's ribbon of light
Bursts through the dark
Wakening you inside
And I thought it was all untrue
Until there, all at once, I knew
When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the same
With no beginning
And without an end
You are the one for me
And it's evident
And your eyes told me so
Your eyes let me know
When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the sameShe buys hem food and clothing
she does his laundry
she washed stinking shirts
and she gets nothing in return
he’s out there earning wages
talking dirty all the time
when he comes home for supper
he wants a slave and not a wife
at nights she wears sweet nothings
to please his dirty mind
He does his wham-bang special
and falls asleep right by her side
Let me tell you now
you don’t need a woman, you need a slave
and it’s no excuse for the way you behave
well, you don’t need a woman
She can’t wear to much make-up
‘cause make-up that’s for whores
he sees her when she wakes up
isn’t she a bore
The weekends are for football
or for drinking with the boys
her heart is doing time
in a prison with no walls
