    Lyrics »

'Till you've been beside a man
You don't know what he wants
You don't know if he cries at night
You don't know if he don't
When nothing comes easy
Old nightmares are real
'Till you've been beside a man
You don't know how he feels

Once inside a woman's heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opened up the door
Where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy
Some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never go

Ooh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon

Everywhere it's all around
Comfort in a crowd
Strangers' faces all abound
Laughing right out loud
Hey watch where you're going
Step light on old toes
'Till you've been beside a man
You don't know who he knows

Ooh blame it on midnight
Oooh shame on the moon
