Not For The Love Of A Woman

You laughed the day you left me
You were glad I was lonely and blue
But the good Lord won't let me suffer
Not for the love of you

The lightning pounded hard and steady
As far as I could see
But listen I'm not worried
Cause somewhere there's a love for me

These teardrops can not blind me
When they pass I will open my eyes
You won't believe me when I tell you
But not for the love of you woman
Would I ever destroy my life

Listen, I'll never dial your number
No, I'll never never knock on your door
Not for the love of you woman
Would I ever cry no more

Ummmm
These teardrops can not blind me, no
When they pass I will open my eyes
You won't believe me when I tell you
But not for the love of you woman
Would I ever destroy my life
But not for the love of you woman
Would I ever destroy my life
Can you hear me
Not for the love of you woman hey Lord
Would I ever destroy my life
Oh no not for the love of you woman
Ummmm no no no no
No not for the love of you woman
No no no no
Honey honey honey honey
