It Takes A Woman

It takes a dreamer to get this far from my hometown
A real believer to look up when things are down
It takes a fool to let a good life fall apart
But when a man knows somethings missing in his heartIt takes a womanIt takes forever to get beyond the bitter years
And if I ever, I ever get that far from here
I can look back and say that I survived
But for a man to really make it in this lifeIt takes a womanYou can gain the world or lose your soul
But if you don't have someone to hold
You can't feel the victory for defeat
Climb higher than you've ever gone
When you reach the top, you're still alone
Flying high don't make a man completeIt takes a woman
Oh, it takes a womanYou can gain the world or lose your soul
But if you don't have someone to hold
You can't feel the victory for defeat
Climb higher than you've ever gone
When you reach the top, you're still alone
Flying high don't make a man completeAny fool can let a good life fall apart
And foolish pride can't fill an empty heartIt takes a woman
It takes a woman
It takes a woman
