Lyrics for How Men Are

It's called love And every cruelty will cloud it And his lie, his lie True love could never allow it 'Cos it's a lie that we have ceased to believe We've said goodbye but it won't take its leave Why should it take the tears of a woman To see how men are P. E. R. S. P. E. C. T. I. V. E. It's no mystery What you don't know always gets you It will hurt you and desert you So you'd better seeThat it's a damage ever done by degrees And some will take eternity to believe Why should it take the tears of a woman To see how men are 'Cos love is a giving with no need of return It lends itself to everything And maybe someday man will see That love is a lesson money never taught us to learn Love is the power to have Without the premise that there's nothing for free And sometimes when we're just getting by and getting along It's like we're scared to see that something is wrong Why should it take (why should) the tears of a woman (the tears of a woman) To see how men are (To see how men are) Why should it take (why should) the tears of a woman (the tears of a woman) To see how men are (To see how men are... To see how men are) P. E. R. S. P. E. C. T. I. V. E. It's no mystery, s'no mystery (no mystery) (P. E. R. S. P. E. C. T. I. V. E. It's history You better see P. E. R. S. P. E. C. T. I. V. E...)
