You love me like I'd never known a love before
'n you took me in to your very own
With protection and tenderness behind your door
Then all at once your need for me was gone.

And there's nothing in this world to compare with loneliness
It's given me into a state of mind
That makes me feel something less than a lady
And oh Lord, I don't wanna be that kind.

— Instrumental —

Until you I'd never known real desire
Now my hungry heart grows hungrier with time
And somebody else's tender touch might start a fire
That could make a lady step across the line.

And there's nothing in this world to compare with loneliness
It's given me into a state of mind
That makes me feel something less than a lady
And oh Lord, I don't wanna be that kind…
