When a Man loves a woman

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)

Epic
When a man loves a woman.

There are a lot of things I do not know. So I make the rules up as I go. Can you try to make me understand that you will be my girl and I will be your man? I sit here, throwing punches in the air. Do you even care? Your eyes that sparkle are just not fair. Your lips of silk do I dare to touch, and can I see you're hair as it blows in the air? So hold my hand and try to understand. You are my girl, and I will make a stand. I love you so much, and I'm in your hands. Now you know and understand.
