Who feels the tears roll down her face?
Only a woman
Who hides the hurt? Who turns her gaze?
Only a woman
Who'll be close enough just to tell
The Claddagh from the toll of the bell?
And who sees the spot where the bouquet just fell?
Only a woman
Only a woman with a heart full of dreams
Torn at the seams
Could feel this way
Regrets line up like hungry children
And she's not getting up to much
She's not getting up today
Who'll wear a laurel of colour and loss?
Only a woman
Who sees the line? Who dares to cross?
Only a woman
And she's back again to look at the odds
Longing to erase all the steps she trod
But she's not an angel, she's not a god
Only a woman
No she's not an angel, she's not a god
Only a woman
Only a woman
Only a woman
