Woman's Face

Don’t put on that makeup

Don’t cover your skin

Let it be naked

And let me look in

Don’t put on the lipstick

Just this once

I know you’ve got cracked lips

From racing the wind

And if you ask me what I am seeking

Is there some truth that I embrace

I’m simple enough

And seeing is believing

And what I see

Is a woman’s face

You don’t look like a model

And thank God for that

You look so beautiful in your morning hat

Don’t put on those earrings

That you love so much

From where I am sitting

You can do without that touch

And if you ask me

Why I am staring

It’s as innocent as a caress

There’s nowhere but here

We’re no longer hiding

Nothing’s as free as a woman’s face

Now you are laughing

From deep in your soul

The lines tell a story

That’s not done being told

Your eyes hold your secrets

They never shall tell

Blue as the ocean

And deep as a well

And if you ask me what I am seeking

Is there some truth that has such grace

I’m simple enough and seeing is believing

And what I see right in front of me is a woman’s face

You know you make me crazy baby

When you give me that pout

Let’s just stay in

Let’s not go out

Let’s go leaping, leaping, leaping

Leaping about
