Black Woman

Cocoa-butter kisses

Wipe my tears away

I wanna feel you like cold water

Dripping down my face

I wanna fly high

Like the stars that I see

Like the birds in the sky

Like the birds in the sky

How do you reconcile, rectify, free your mind?

Bondage, they have me in shackles

How do you smile when you've got nothing to smile about?

How do you love when you've got no one coming back to the house?

Black woman, sometimes

Sad woman, but all of the time

She's a queen from another place

Why are you so displaced?

She's a goddess walking on earth, baby

Superwoman

Power comes from the sun

Lovely woman

My only one

Mother of creation

All the nations

Sing your praise

Without knowing

Black woman, sometimes

Sad woman, but all of the time

She's a queen from another place

Why are you so displaced?

She's a goddess walking on earth, baby, yeah

How do you love

How do you love the way you do?

What did I do to deserve you?

Why do I always desert you?

How do you feel when they don't feel for you?

How do you love when they don't love you back? No

Woman, sometimes

How do you love, how do you love the way you do?

How do you love, how do you love the way you do?

How do you love, how do you love the way you do?
