Lyrics:
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'll change the world
For the good thing he's found.

If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down

When a man loves a woman
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain,
If she said that's the way
It ought to be.

Well, this man loves you, woman.
I gave you everything I have
Tryin' to hold on to your heartless love
Baby, please don't treat me bad.


When a man loves a woman,
Down deep in his soul,
She can bring him such misery.

If she is playin' him for a fool,
He's the last one to know.
Lovin' eyes can never see.

When a man loves a woman
He can do her no wrong
He can never want
Some other girl.

Yes,When a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels,
'Cause baby, baby, baby you're my world

When a man loves a woman...
