Lyrics:
Back then there were no othersAll I knew, true beginnersWe had to give the perfect prisonNo such a thing, I'm toldIt's tense for meCan't live within a memoryProud woman I did confess with youEvery fella deserves his dignityMy heart is older than yoursIt passed from monkey into mineNow tended hands do heal the hurtAnd it for good, and any landIt's tense for meCan't live within a memoryProud woman I did confess with youEvery fella deserves his dignityIt's tense for meBack up we're living with is historyProud woman, now don't go soft on meIs the thing so dignityIt's tense for me, it's tense for me. (x8)It's tense for meCan't live within a memoryProud woman I did confess with youEvery fella deserves his dignity
