martyn joseph - this being woman lyrics

[verse 1]
you stand now in the pension queue
with secrets of the former you
the handheld strolls on seaside piers
the dinner dances and the tears

[verse 2]
the hen nights and the going dutch
the skin that men so longed to touch
the stomach howl of childbirth
the never knowing what you’re worth

[chorus]
this being woman, being old
invisible and unsaid gold
still sensuous with mystery
the silk of who you’ve yet to be
doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo, ah

[verse 3]
and you remember tumbling things
the frеsh and fluid light of spring
the fractious children, midnight mass
the almost lovеr’s heady pass

[verse 4]
the saving for that summer cruise
and every month the piercing blues
the lipsticks bought, the cashmere coat
the husband gone without a note
[chorus]
this being woman, being old
invisible and unsaid gold
still sensuous with mystery
it’s the silk of who you’ve yet to be
doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo, da, da

[verse 5]
the christmas shopping on your own
the ecstasy you should have known
the dreams and dust of wedding vows
the silent darkness, funerals, rows

[verse 6]
albums full of photographs
the sunflowers and mountain paths
the olive groves, the gasping kiss
the too much time to reminisce

[verse 7]
the jewelry with that silver cross
the cherry sunsets and the loss
the role of a mother, friend and a wife
this gallery of all your life
[chorus]
this being woman, being old
invisible and unsaid gold
still sensuous with mystery
it’s the silk of who you’ve yet to be
this being woman, being old
invisible and unsaid gold
still sensuous with mystery
the silk of who you’ve yet to be
doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo, da, da
this being woman, being old
invisible and unsaid gold
still sensuous with mystery
the silk of who you’ve yet to be
oh
