Woman You Took My Life

Woman, you were good to me
Did every single thing for me that you could do
When I could see no point in going on
I'd lift myself up knowing
On another day I'd see you
In my need, I reached for you
The steady hand to lead me through the darkest days
You took me running, chasing after better things
The laughter of another day
Imagine how I felt then
When I found that you had gone away
Woman, you took my hopes, you took my dreams
Woman, you took my love, you took my schemes
You left me nothing else to do
But turn around and start anew
Woman, when you walked out
You took my life away with you
Through a haze of fantasies
Fears and uncertainties, you came to me
A reason to be going on
A hope, when hope had nearly gone
A will in me that had to be
Imagine how I felt then
When I found that you had gone away
Woman, you took my hopes, you took my dreams
Woman, you took my love, you took my schemes
You left me nothing else to do
But turn around and start anew
Woman, when you walked out
You took my life away with you
