To Be a Woman Lyrics

I feel a bond between us
I have felt like you do
I know better than to take it away from you
I have a right
The only one in my life
The right to what is rightfully mine
Untainted, untempted and sober

I will never touch that skin again
I will never feel that way again
I will never look into the face of my father or my friends
And be able to say, I'm okay, I'm okay
I don't feel pain anyway
Not anymore anyway
I'm not dead yet
I could be soon
And all I want to do
Is put my arms around you
Little girl, it's all so new

Go, little girl
You need to learn, little girl
Not to take what is mine
I'm not dead yet
I could be soon
And all I want to do
Is put my arms around you
Little girl, it's all so new

Go, little girl,
You need to learn, little girl,
What is it to be a woman
