Lyrics
I’m strong, I’m sureI’m in control, a lady with a planBelieving that life is a neat little packageI hold in my handI’ve got it together, they call me the girlWho knows just what to say and doStill, I fumble and fall, run into the wall‘Cause when it comes to youI’m just another woman in loveA kid out of schoolA fire out of control, just another foolYou touch me, and I’m weak, I’m a feather in the windAnd I can’t wait to feel you touching me againWith you, I’m just another womanJust another woman in loveSo pardon me if I should stare and tremble like a childThat wanting me look all over your face is driving me wildI’m just what you make meCan’t wait ’til you take me, and set all my feelings freeI know that you can, so come be my manTonight, I wanna beJust another woman in loveA kid out of schoolA fire out of control, just another foolYou touch me, and I’m weak, I’m a feather in the windAnd I can’t wait to feel you touching me againWith you, I’m just another womanJust another woman in loveJust another woman in loveA kid out of schoolA fire out of controlJust another foolYou touch me, and I’m weak, I’m a feather in the windAnd I can’t wait to feel you touching me againWith you, I’m just another womanJust another woman in love
