NOW THAT YOU'RE A WOMAN
(Dianne Davidson)
Dianne Davidson - 1972
Now that you're a woman, can you hold your own
With the ones who came before you and taught you all you know
Can you let them know that you're not the one they think you are
You're not a superstar, but you need someone to talk to now
And now that you have lent yourself to people that you've known
Can you just reclaim yourself and pretend that you have grown
Can you let them see that your paths have gone astray
You're not the child of their day, but you need a shoulder to lean on now
Come on child away, you're just a smile away
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And now that you've convinced yourself that all your friends are gone
Can you just forget them all and pretend that they were wrong
Can you let them know what the act that did you ?????
And though it was not a sin, you need that man to understand
Come on child away, you're just a smile away
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
