When A Man Loves A Woman Lyrics

Percy Sledge When A Man Loves A Woman

when a man loves a woman
can't keep his mind on nothing else
he'd trade the world for a good thing he's found
if she is bad he can't see it
she can do no wrong
turn his back on his best friend if he put her down
when a man loves a woman
spend his very last dime
trying to hold on to what he needs
he'd give up all his comforts
and sleep out in the rain
if she said that's way it ought to be
but the man loves the woman
i gave you everything i had
trying to hold on to your high class love
baby please dont treat me bad
when a man loves a woman
down deep in his soul
she can bring him such misery
if she plays him for a fool
he's the last one to know
loving eyes can never see
when a man loves a woman
he can do her no wrong
he could never hold another girl
yes when a man loves a woman
i know exactly how he feels
cause baby baby you're my world
when a man loves a woman
i know exactly how he feels
(song fades)
