Tell me why, why, why man wants a woman?
Does he give her his best, does he try to impress
All the things he will do for her why?
When that man gets that woman

Does he tend to neglect her, does he tend to forget
All the things, all the things that he said to get her?
All the promises that he made gonna lose what he gained
'Cause the time has come for things to change, gotta change

Tell me why, why, why when a woman wants a man
Does she give him her best, does she try to impress
All the things she will do for him why?
When that woman gets that man

Does she give him her heart, does she then fall apart
When he's late start to hate all those lonely nights alone
When the loving feelings have gone, when his home's not a home
When the time has come for things to change, gotta change

And why does a woman and why does a man
Turn something special into a battle ground
When they both know what they're fighting is just a losing battle
Against the power of love which nobody ever wins?

Tell me why, why, why when a man loves a woman
Does he give her his best, does he try to impress
All the things he will do for her, why?
When a woman gets that man

Why can't you forgive him
'Cause the time has come for things to change
Gotta change, gotta change, gotta change
