I turned around and it was gone.
Did I leave it in your car?
On a table in a bar?
Or in your bed between the sheets?
The places where we used to meet.
Wherever love has gone I need to know.
Cos shes a woman,
Oh yeah, shes a woman.
Ma ma ma ma ma ma shes a lady.
And I just love the way she moves,
The way she moves, watch her.
When you left,
I didnt know how I was going to forget you.
I was hanging by a thread and then I met her.
Selling pictures of herself to german business men.
Well, thats all she wants to do.
Come on, come on.
I dont want to try too hard.
I dont want to wait too long.
I dont want to live alone,
With all this crap that pulls me down.
Oh, tell me now,
How would it feel,
If I could touch you once again.
Where have you gone, where have you gone.
The moon has gone down on the sun, oh yeah.
I know that youre coming home.
You wouldnt leave me on my own.
Everybody cant you see,
Shes coming back to me.
Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didnt die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
Just so I could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel ok.
I felt ok.
Oh I felt sick and tired,
Yes I did.
She lived at her fathers place,
Played his records though they jumped.
Wore her body back to front.
I tried hard to make it work,
Kissed her where she said it hurt
But I was always underneath.
Shes a woman,
Oh yeah, shes a woman.
Ma ma ma ma ma ma shes a lady.
And I just love the way she moves,
The way she moves, watch her.
I dont know why you pretend,
That it causes you pain,
When you know very well,
Youre going to do it again.
Youre going to do it again
And again
And again
But can you keep it going all nite long?
I know its going to happen.
It might not be today.
It might not be tomorrow,
Or even the day after,
But some time soon, youll see,
Youre going to come back to me.
Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didnt die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
Just so I could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel ok.
I felt ok.
Whilst you were gone I got along.
I didnt die, I carried on.
Oh yeah I went with other women,
What else can I say?
I guess I kind of missed you,
Whilst you were away.
Whilst you were gone.
