Melissa Etheridge - The Heart of a Woman Lyrics

Tell me, sweet sister
Tell me, why are you cryin'?
Did you think this world was a bitter place
And that love must be dyin'?
Well, I stand before you now
Humbled, with a message from a higher law
Telling us that we can have it all
Just let this old world crumble
Just let it fall don't be afraid
The new world is on it's way

Angels just come here
To the heart of a woman take away the fear
From the heart of a woman

Our power ends
Precisely where our fear begins
So, find the love that has no end, yeah
And send it right back to you
We are so afraid of time and space
The tracks that life leaves on our face
Where's our dignity? We have no pride
We must celebrate the woman wise
And love our hips and love our thighs
We can make the goddess rise
We've been asleep 2, 000 years
Come on, come on, wake up, wake up
Wake up, my dear

Oh, angels come here to the heart of a woman
And take away the fear
In the heart of a woman, yeah

The greatest of all mysteries
Has been silence throughout history
But the change is gonna come
The change is coming from
The heart of a woman

Oh oh oh oh

Although your eyes are teary now
Mother Earth is weary now
In our time the pain will cease
'Cause woman holds the missing peace
In the heart in the heart of a woman, hey
Angels come here, come here
In the heart, the heart of a woman
Oh, the greatest of all mysteries, oh
In the heart of a woman take away the fear
Take away the fear from the heart of a woman
In the heart of a woman
