I Wouldn't Be A Man
Hazell Dean · Other Songs - Hazell Dean
It's shining on your skin
And the way your body moves me
I know there's no holding back
No holding back.
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man
If a woman like you was anything but resist
I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this.
I can feel passion flowing
As you fall into my arms
And the secret way you touch me
I know there's no holding back
No holding back.
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man
If a woman like you was anything but resist
I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this.
Roll with me baby all night long
Soul to soul with me baby all night long.
I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this...
