This Woman’s Work Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pray God you can cope
I stand outside this woman's work
This woman's world
Oh, it's hard on the man
Now his part is over
Now starts the craft of the father

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left

[Chorus]
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show
Should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things I should've said
That I never said
All the things we should've done
That we never did
All the things I should've given
But I didn't
Oh, darling, make it go
Make it go away now
[Verse 2]
Give me these moments back
Give them to me
Give me that little kiss
Give me your hand

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left

[Chorus]
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've said
That we never said
All the things we should've done
That we never did
All the things that you needed from me
All the things that you wanted for me
All the things I should've given but I didn't
Oh, darling, make it go
Just make it go away now
Now

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
