As recorded by BARBARA ACKLIN:
In the fire, it was burnin'
Sweetheart, I know I should've been learnin'
But my pockets, full of money, yes they were
I had someone, yes I did, to call my honey
But it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman (Ooh, that makes a woman)
Yes, it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman (Ooh, that makes a woman)
Something told me that this wouldn't last
Now my heartache is in the past
I had to swallow all my pride
And admit to myself deep down inside
Diamonds and pearls
Don't you know that I've had enough
But I feel so much better, yes I do
Dressed in love
Yes, it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman (Ooh, that makes a woman)
Yes, it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman (Ooh, that makes a woman)
What she is, yeah
What she is!
(Instrumental Break)
Ooh, and it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman, yes it is (Ooh, that makes a woman)
Yes, it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman (Ooh, that makes a woman)
What she is, yeah
What she is!
And it's love (Ooh, sweet love)
That makes a woman, yeah ........ FADE
