when you really love someone

Alicia Keys

I'm a woman
Lord knows it's hard
I need a real man to give me what I need
Sweet attention, love and tenderness
When it's real, it's unconditional
I'm telling ya?ll
Cause a man just ain't a man if he man enough

To love you when you're right
Love you when you're wrong
Love you when you're weak
Love you when you're strong
Take you higher, when the world got you feeling low
He's giving you his last, cause he?s thinking of you first
Giving comfort when he's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really really love someone
I'm telling ya?ll, I'm telling ya?ll

Cause you're a real man
And Lord knows it's hard
Sometimes you just need a woman's touch
Sweet affection, love and support
When it's real it's unconditional
I'm telling ya?ll, oh
Cause a woman ain't a woman if she woman enough

To love you when you're right
Love you when you're wrong
Love you when you're weak
Love you when you're strong
Take you higher, when the world got you feeling low
She's giving you her best, even when you?re at your worst
Giving comfort when she's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling ya?ll, I'm telling ya?ll
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Sometimes you're gonna argue, sometimes you're gonna fight
Sometimes it's gonna feel like it'll never be right
But something so strong keeps you hold?n on
It don't make sense but it makes a good song
Cause a man just ain't a man if he man enough

To love you when you're right
Love you when you're wrong
Love you when you're weak
Love you when you're strong (Love when you when you?re strong)
(Take you higher) when the world got you feeling low
He's giving you his last, cause he?s thinking of you first
Giving comfort when he's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling ya?ll, I'm telling ya?ll

I'm tellying ya?ll that a woman ain't a woman if she woman enough
(To love ya!)
To Love you when you're right
Love you when you're wrong
(To hold ya!)
Love you when you're weak
Love you when you're strong
Take you higher and higher
when the world got you feeling low
She's giving you her best, even when you?re at your worst (even when you?re at your worst, BABYBA!)
Giving comfort when she's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling ya?ll, I'm telling ya?ll
Mm, mm, yeah (4x)
