Analysis of Doing it all over again



If I could live my life differently
From the start doing it all over again
Of course I'd have another identity
Maybe a woman instead of a man

Then and only I'd begin to understand clearly
What my mom and sisters told me
When a woman loves you dearly
Doesn't matter who you are or use to be
