She is the light of my day, the stars of my night.
She is the cause of my joy, the source of my might.
She walks with me, she takes my hand,
With her by my side I am complete as a man.
HAPPINESS thy name is WOMAN.

She comes to me, sweetly, as often before.
We laugh, we dance, she closes the door.
She tells me that I will be forever her friend,
But another has her heart, for us it does end.
HEARTBREAK thy name is WOMAN.

She moves with power, she walks with grace,
The light of justice shines from her face.
Honor is the crown that rests on her brow,
And when she passes, all creatures must bow.
MAJESTY thy name is WOMAN.

She offers kisses then dances away.
She is the cat, I the mouse for her play.
I'm he moth to her candle, burning brightly.
I fall destroyed, while she laughs lightly.
CRUELTY thy name is WOMAN.

Kind and true, spiteful and cruel,
I am her true love, I am her lost fool.
My mind aches trying to understand her plan.
SHe is an unguessable riddle to the mind of a man.
Surely MYSTERY thy name is WOMAN.
