Only a woman can love this hard
Only a woman
Yeah, when this woman loves a man
She'll take you to hell and back
Take you to hell and back

And even when you won't admit
You know you're gonna need
To be next to the only woman who
can make you feel that kind of fire
No, you won't get tired

And when you think it's all I got
I'll bring it up a notch
I'll take you on a crazy ride,
you'll never get enough
Oh baby, I'm your girl
And this is how I show my love

'Cause only a woman can get this dark
Only a woman can cause these scars
Only a woman can love this hard
Only a woman
Yeah, when this woman loves a man
She'll take you to hell and back
Take you to hell and back
