If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man)

by Robin Beck

on Trouble or Nothin' (1989)

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

How's it feel to be a woman?
How's it feel to be a man?
Are we really that different?
Tell me where we stand
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day?
I'd like to try another way
Oh, baby, for just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

How's it feel to be the hunter?
How's it feel to be the prey?
Is there really a reason
For this game we play?
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day?
I'd like to try another way
Oh, darling, for just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

Hey, we're just two people trying to love
Oh, but how, how can we love?
With these walls between us, holding us back

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

If you were a woman and I was a man
(Oh...)
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man

If you were a woman and I was a man
(Oh...)
Would it be so hard to understand?
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
