Alone

Alone
 One man, one man can change the mind of a woman if he tries
 He might use truth, he might use lies
 And it don't seem to matter much of what he says or what he does
 As he tries in vain to show the kind of love he has to give
 And through a sieve, the words go down the drain
 Yes, men and women equal
 But we're not the same
 Alone
 One woman, one woman all alone she can change a man
 She'll do all that she can
 Trying hard to figure out what's already been done
 Before he was her husband, he was just some poor woman's son
 And she's not suggesting someone else might be to blame
 Just, men and women equal
 But we're not the same
 Alone
 We all start, we all start out alone and seek a mystery all our own
 So let the heart beat out its ancient tone
 And let all those lovers seek to find
 To open up their hearts and open their minds
 And may one take the other's last name
 Yes, men and women equal
 But we're not the same
