Woke this mornin' with a nasty feeling',
I needed you to set my heart a-reelin'
Can you understand
That when I'm sittin' with the blues,
I can have you close to me
The magic in your eyes is gonna set me free
Be my understandin' woman.
So hard to come by always bringin' sunshine, bringin' sunshine da da da, la la la da
Be my understandin' woman
So good to have you near me every mornin', every morning. INST
Fast and fleet come so many dreams
Feelin' free, livin' life together
And so it seems
That time's gonna tell us what will happen
That's the way we're made to be
Eyes can see your lovin' me has set me free
Be my understandin' woman.
Always smilin' even on through hard times
When it's rainin'
Gotta make somethin' good of myself,
Will you stay right by on and on through hard times?
And we know
That fame and fortune is no good
Not unless we live with love
Peace is gonna come to us
Be my understandin' woman. X3
Be my understandin' woman.
It's that smile that you've been keepin',
Tells me that you're always carin',
And I love you more than words can say I do
I do.
I needed you to set my heart a-reelin'
Can you understand
That when I'm sittin' with the blues,
I can have you close to me
The magic in your eyes is gonna set me free
Be my understandin' woman.
So hard to come by always bringin' sunshine, bringin' sunshine da da da, la la la da
Be my understandin' woman
So good to have you near me every mornin', every morning. INST
Fast and fleet come so many dreams
Feelin' free, livin' life together
And so it seems
That time's gonna tell us what will happen
That's the way we're made to be
Eyes can see your lovin' me has set me free
Be my understandin' woman.
Always smilin' even on through hard times
When it's rainin'
