Woman As Salvation

Talking girlfriend as religion

Of faith lost and new found

Of disillusion with the system

Of justice and redemption

Of blind faith and let me downs

Talking 'bout my lady of good hope

Woman as savior, my salvation

A mighty queen who arrives at the end of time

To salvage the cause and save my dying nation

And I was just a citizen of the city

Making wages in the bakery in the square

Kneading dough and thinking revolution

When my lady, she appeared

Conversation on the spot to her

Woman as religion - time for a holy war

I raise a fist above my head and to her I swore

My allegiance

And there was revolution in the streets

Barricades at the parliament house

Stong victories and hard defeats

In the battle to win my own crown

And sav my dying nation

Talking 'bout woman as salvation
