"The Truth Of My Life In Songs..."


I've often thought that much of my life could be set to music... And if so, this would be one of the songs on the soundtrack of my life...

This is the track that would play on this day every year...

I bravely declared my love for him late on the night of October 15, 2006... and thereafter I discovered that this song, it would described me for forevermore.  Perhaps if I had known, things would've been different.




"Just Like A Woman"
Performed by Nina Simone

She takes
Just like a woman
Yes she does
And she makes love
Just like a woman
And she aches
Just like a woman
But she breaks
Like a little girl
Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows
That baby's got new clothes
Lately I see her ribbons and her bows
And the problems
From her curls
She takes
Just like a woman
Yes she does
And she makes love
Just like a woman
And she aches
Just like a woman
And she breaks
Like a little girl
It was raining from the first
Everybody knows I was dying of thirst
So I came here
Long time's curse
And what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear
Ain't it clear
I must admit
I believe it's time for us to quit
And when we meet again
Bein' introduced as friends
Please don't let on
That you knew me when
I was hungry
And it was your world
I take
Just like a woman
Yes I do
And I make love
Just like a woman
And I ache
Just like a woman
But I break
Just like a little girl
