The Kind of Man a Woman Needs
Handsome - no my man ain't handsome,but there's a trace of a wondrous grace in his weary face.Life has done its best to break him,but his strength and courage make himjust the kind of man a woman needs.
Tender - he ain't always tender, but in his eyessomething warm and wise lifts me to the skies.If his heart ain't always showing,it's a comfort just in knowingHe's the kind of man a woman needs.
Sometimes he'll grow angry at some foolish thing I do,Then he'll forgive to spare me pain.Times he'll know I'm troubledso he'll laugh to cheer me through,till my heart is light as summer rain.
Youthful - no my man ain't youthful, that time's gone by.But his head is high and his dreams won't die.Though he's had his share of sorrow,he looks forward to tomorrow.He's the kind of man a woman needs.He's the kind of man a woman needs.
