There is a time when a man needs somebody to talk to
   Someone to talk to, somebody who'll always be there
   (All alone) Nothin' seemed to matter
   (So alone) Doesn't get much better
   (Can't explain) Something that you're feeling
   For the very first time
  
   There was a time when you needed someone to hold on to
   Someone to hold you, somebody who's always sincere
   (All alone) Suddenly you see her
   (So alone) You know you're gonna meet her
   (Can't explain) Something that you're feeling
   For the very first time
  
   Then along comes a woman
   There's a change in the way
   That you're feeling tonight
   Then along comes a woman
   And you know that it's right
  
   There was a time that you needed somebody to count on
   You needed someone to count on, somebody to care
   (Now she's here) Nothin' seems to matter
   (She's so near) Everything is better
   (Can't explain) Something that you're feeling
   For the very first time
  
   Then along comes a woman
   There's a change in the way
   That you're feeling tonight
   Then along comes a woman
   And you know that it's right
   (And you know that it's right)
  
   Then along comes a woman
   There's a change in the air
   That you're breathing tonight
   Then along comes a woman
   And you're holding her tight
  
   Then along comes a woman
   There's a change in the way
   That you're feeling tonight
   Then along comes a woman
   And you know that it's right
   (And you know that it's right)
  
   Then along comes a woman
   There's a change in the air
   That you're breathing tonight
   Then along comes a woman
   And you're holding her tight
