I'm so tired of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play

For I've been a temptress too long
Just...
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Through this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over and give us some room, yeah

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just want to be a woman
So don't you stop being a man
Just take a little look
From our side when you can

Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman

For this is the beginning
Of forever and ever

It's time to move over
It's all I want to be
