Beautiful Brunette

A

Don’t you know you leave me in pain

A

I was only ten years old

when my mother left my daddy

She had another lover

on the other side of town

My sister and my brother

they soon left after

So me and dad was left alone

and he found another woman

A 

I lived for six years

w/ my daddy and his girlfriend

She didn’t wanna be my mother

she was her own woman

She didn’t seem to realize –

the boy was just a kid

That needed a mother

like everybody does

B

Daddy I have always longed

To be your son

A

I could not stand the pressure

of being some weapon

Held against my mother

shooting bullets of pain

So at the age of sixteen

I escaped my daddy

Leaving just a little note

saying something like this

B

Daddy I have always longed

To be your son

C

Time has gone by

like time does

I have learned

to take care of myself

I just wanna let you know

there’s always an open door

In my heart

and in my house

B

Daddy I have always

Daddy I have always

Daddy I have always longed

Do you need me in your body

Do you want me in your house

Could it be me, baby you got it

I’d like to be your spouse

A

Do you need me in your body

Do you want me in your world

Could it be me, baby you got it

Would you like to be my girl

B

I’m trying to find out

What is going on

On the love side of the world

Can I find it in you girl

A

Do you need me in your body

Do you want me in your heart

Could it be me, baby you got it

Do you want me, that’s a start

B

Is it you and me

trying to make it work

Is it separation

that would be absurd

Is everybody trying

to forget what they want

And forget what they need

though they bleed

C

Girl you make me feel

just a Spanish toreador

The way you look, the way you kiss

makes me come back for more

It makes me think

that you’re the best

and no one will compare

No matter where I look

I see you everywhere

I see you everywhere

A

Do you need me in your body

Do you want me in your world

Could it be me, baby you got it

Would you like to be my girl

Would you like to be my girl

Would you like to be my girl

A

I’ll never give up on you

I will not let you down

I will always be there

when you want me to

Life is too dear for separation

The ones that you love

needs integration

B

I wanna get into

the family groove

Get into

the family groove

A

You might think it’s hard

to overcome the pain

But looking out the window

you won’t see no rain

Stretch out your arm

and open up your heart

Embrace, that’s when

the loving starts

B

I wanna get into

the family groove

Get into

the family groove

Outro

A

Here comes a strange woman

Looking into me eyes

Here comes a strange woman

Taking off my disguise

A

Here comes a strange woman

Sitting on the ground

Here comes a strange woman

Turning my head around

B

I think I know you

I think I do

You sure mean a lot to me

A

Here comes a strange woman

Listening to the band

Here comes a strange woman

Taking me by the hand

A

Here comes a strange woman

Looking into me eyes

Here comes a strange woman

Taking me by surprise

B

I think I know you

I feel like I do

You sure mean a lot to me

C

Ah ah ah ah

Out

I love you

I love you

I look into your eyes

They’re beautiful as can be

I see your perfect body

I wanna have your baby

B

I wanted your love

But all you had to share was your pain

I wanted your touch

A little bit too much

A

I see you when you’re walking

Your steps in life

I hear you when you’re talking

You got the voice of an angel

B

I wanted your love

But all you had to share was your pain

I wanted your touch

A little bit too much

C

I took a walk on the wild side of life

Now I try to find my way back home

A

I feel you, when you’re leaving

Out of my mind

Still try to believe in

That love is kind

B

I wanted your love

But all you had to share was your pain

I wanted your touch

A little bit too much

C              

I took a walk on the wild side of life

Now I try to find my way back home

I took a walk on the wild side of life

Now I try to find my way back home
