Why does my love make you shift restless in your chair
And leave you in despair
It's simply love – my love for a woman
It's a simple hand on a warm face to say
A glance to see if love is still ok
A glow at dawn when love is still there
Tears and strong arms at the end of the day
And simply love – my love for a woman
It's the laughter as the kids clown
And tease our weary thoughts away
It's looking 'round the table
And knowing hard work fed us one more day
And simply love – my love for a woman
Why does my love make you shift in your chair
It's the bombs across the border
That should make you tear your hair
And yet it's my love leaves you screaming out your nightmare
Perhaps you know there's something you should fear
If my love makes me strong and makes you disappear
It's simply love – my love for a woman
