Understanding a Woman

Lie to me, but dont deceive me.
Cry for me, but dont believe me.
Listen, but dont understand.
I am a woman and you are a man.

Tell me things I already know.
Take me places I dont want to go.
Listen, but dont understand.
I am a woman and you are a man.

Make wonderful plans, but dont find the time.
Be a little nice, but not quite kind.
Listen, but dont understand.
I am a woman and you are a man.

Take me to the store, but wont push the cart.
Gentle with my hand, but not with my heart.
Listen, but dont understand.
I am a woman and you are a man.

When Im pushed down, youre not around.
When Im far up, youre holding my crown.
Dont be surprised one day when Im gone.
And you cant even find me to tell me Im wrong.
You sit there and you still just wont understand.
That I am a woman and you are a man.
