Woman Is Like a Shadow - Jason Cat

Wash my pain away Half a woman, half a shadow Daylight is breaking again I hide in the dark, I'm watching the rain You're out of touch and you're out of reach What can I say, I never wanted it this way Love sleeps all alone The cold telephone, I know the heart Yes, I know the kind, the kisses of fire turning to grey I never wanted it this way I always wanted you to stay Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Oh love always change with the trees, the spring and the leaves The waves on the sea Wilder than light the wind in your eyes led me astray I never wanted it this way I always wanted you to stay Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Oh, I need you Yes, I need you Oh, give me a reason to believe Oh, wash my pain, washing away Oh, half a woman (half a woman) Half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman (half a shadow) Half a shadow Oh, wash my pain away, oh - oh Cause I/m half a woman (half a woman) Half a shadow Oh, wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman (half a shadow) Half a shadow From album "Look Sharp!"

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 And everybody knows I was dying of thirst So I came here And a 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

Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand inside the rain Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes But lately I see her ribbons and her bows Have fallen from her curls She takes just like a woman, yes, she does And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does And she aches just like a woman But she breaks just like a little girl Queen Mary, she's my friend Yes, I believe, I'll go see her again Nobody has to guess that baby can't be blessed Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls She takes just like a woman, yes, she does And she makes love just like a woman, yes, she does And she aches just like a woman But she breaks just like a little girl It was raining from the first And I was dying there of thirst, so I came in here When your longtime curse hurts But what's worse is this pain in here I can't stay in here, ain't it clear that I just can't fit? Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit When we meet again introduced as friends Please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry and it was your world Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes, you do And you make love just like a woman, yes, you do Then you ache just like a woman But you break just like a little girl

It's beautiful, your honesty You cry when you need to Say what you feel You're never afraid to wear Your heart on your sleeve You're always so open with me It's in your voice, I can hear it The sound of a woman in love Only a woman can love you so much Give you her life and give you her trust Not any woman can do what you do Only a woman like you It's magical, your love for me It's more than a man could ever receive I'm just a man and it's hard to believe A woman like you could love me It's in your eyes, I can see it The look of woman in love Only a woman can love you so much Give you her life and give you her trust Not any woman can do what you do Only a woman like you, oh If only I could find the words to say But I just can't so, forgive me 'Cause you took the words away Yeah, you answered every prayer I always prayed It's in your touch, I can feel it The feeling of a woman in love Only a woman can love you so much Give you her life and give you her trust Not any woman can do what you do Only a woman like you, yeah Only a woman can love you so much Give you her life and give you her trust Not any woman can do what you do Only a woman like you

Paintings on the wall They made one of me Feeling like a woman lately They're what I could've been A soft mirror image They won't know me but I'm hoping Sing like a bird or a duck Perpetual puberty Feeling so invaded lately Put the makeup on A skirt from the costumes I was once a pretty girl too In this life Settle for What's below It's not enough Laying on my own Rubbing off the skin Feeling so disgusted lately Shaped like a floral vase Triangle is the dream Feeling oh so concave lately In this life Settle for What's below It's not enough It's not enough It's not enough It's not enough It's not enough
