Annie Lennox Womankind Lyrics

One more time for the womenkind
This is for the womankind
Check it out
Check it out
(burr bup, burr bup)

One more time for the womenkind
(burr bup, burr bup)
This is for the womankind
Check it out
Check it out
(burr bup, burr bup)

Oh baby's got precious eyes
And when he smiles
The sun comes shining
To make the day seem like
Each cloud contains a silver lining
I would be so happy if he belonged with me forever
But I know it's not to be
It's not part of my destination
(ohh, oohooo)
(burr bup, burr bup)
(ohh, oohooo)
(burr bup, burr bup)

Wish I had a lover
Who could turn this water into wine
I wish I had a lover
Who could give me loving any time
Wish I had so many things
And all my wishes would come true
It's got me thinking that I want to get too close to you
(ohh, oohooo)
Check it out
Check it out
(ohh, oohooo)
Check it out
Check it out

Hear my prayer
Don't you know I'm tired of waiting
Hear my prayer
Won't you give it a chance
Hear my prayer
Don't you know I'm clearly statin'
I need to change this circumstance
(woo)
(burr bup, burr bup)
(burr bup, burr bup)

You could be the best d___ thing
That hasn't happened yet to me
(you the best thang)
You could be the best thing
To come into my mythology
(you the best thang)
We could have the kind of dream
They call the great affinity
(you the best thang)
I want to turn it into something like reality
Hold me now
(oohoooo)
I'm tired of waiting
Hold me now
Hold me now, I'm asking you
Hold me now
No more anticipating
(no more anticipating)
Why won't you come to my rescue
(come to my rescue)
(yeah, yeah, to my rescue, huh, yeah)
(burr bup, burr bup)

Oooh, baby's got precious eyes
(woah, yeah)
And when he smiles the sun comes blasting
(woah, yeah)
I wish that feeling of contentment
(woah, yeah)
Could be everlasting
(woah, yeah)
I would be so happy
(woah, yeah)
To give him all my dedication
(woah, yeah)
I would be so happy
(woah, yeah)
But it's so in my imagination
(woah, yeah)

(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
This is for the womankind
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
sing it for the womankind
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
yeah, that's right for the womankind
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
here comes Nadirah (Nadirah X Rap section)

How many doors must I go through
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
These constant dreams that I pursue
I can see possibilities in you
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
Yeah here we go again
Is it all too good to be true
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
Yeah this thing called love
Still don't know what it is
Maybe I've had enough
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
Oh save me please
All my wants are becoming needs
Tell me what she feels
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
Too bare for you to see
Yeah every desire go through the fire
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
This is what I give of me
If I could just be free
Baby, won't you rescue me
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
(rescue me)(every desire goes through the fire)
(ohh, oohooo, ohh)
(rescue me)(every desire goes through the fire)

Lay me down
I want to be
(every desire goes through the fire)
under your skin
(every desire goes through the fire)
(won't you rescue me)

Lay me down
I want to be
(every desire goes through the fire)(rescue me)
under your skin
(every desire goes through the fire)(won't you rescue me)
(every desire goes through the fire)(won't you rescue me)
(every desire goes through the fire)(rescue me)
(every desire goes through the fire)(won't you rescue me)
baby won't you rescue me
