Walk Like A Woman
[IMELDA][ENSEMBLE WOMEN]He taught meHow to do itHe taught meLightlyHe taught meYou’ll get through itHe taught meNightly[IMELDA]
And to be married to such a man
I can’t believe how lucky I am
I am so lucky, so lucky to be
Never poor no more, I have all that I need
[IMELDA AND ENSEMBLE WOMEN]
I’m going to learn how to walk like a woman
I’m going to learn how to dress, how to dance
I’m going to learn how to make an impression
Do anything for the love of this man
[IMELDA]
And if he loved me on the day we met
Then why must I be someone else?
The girl he married, now is that still me?
Who am I now? I ask myself
And if I bang my head on the wall for hours
Then I won’t feel the confusion no more
The New York doctor, bright yellow pills he gave me
Remind yourself what you’re doing it for
It’s for love, it’s for love
It’s for love, it’s for love
It’s for love, it’s for love
It’s for love, in your head
There’s nothing wrong with your heart
