I Need a Woman
Liner Notes
Dating has become basically impossible. Here I tried to follow Kait Willett’s anthropological model of the breakdown of heterosexual dating in the last decade more so than my own experience.
Lyrics
I need a woman Who doesn’t know she needs me And I don’t like to argue And I don’t want to shout
I need a woman Always thinking about me But I can’t wait forever For her to figure it out
I said yes I said this is a test I know I shouldn’t But I need a woman
I need a woman Who is overcommitted Who would never make a project Of a man like me
I need a woman And everyone’s watching They want some kind of magic So what will it be
I said yes I said this is a test I know I shouldn’t But I need a woman
This is not the age of love You’ve got to prove you can make it But I couldn’t fake it And I couldn’t take it
Find a way to rise above This everyday competition Use your keen intuition So that’s my position
I need a woman A woman of possibilities Sees behind the curtain Of the world today
I need a woman Who doesn’t follow the crowd And I know for certain She will know what to say
I said yes I said this is a test I know I shouldn’t But I need a woman
This is not the age of love You’ve got to prove you can make it But I couldn’t fake it And I couldn’t take it
Find a way to rise above This everyday competition Use your keen intuition So that’s my position
I said yes I said this is a test I know I shouldn’t But I I
I said yes I said this is a test I know I shouldn’t But I need a woman
I like this lyric, sure its fruitful ground and its well laid out , a nice different slant on an old story! very good
