When a man loves a woman

When a man loves a woman,
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else,
He'd change the world for the good thing he's found.
If she is bad, he can't see it,
She can do no wrong,
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down.
When a man loves a woman,
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs.
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain,
If she said that's the way
It ought to be.
Well, this man loves you, woman.
I gave you everything I have,
Tryin' to hold on to your heartless love.
Baby, please don't treat me bad.
When a man loves a woman,
Down deep in his soul,
She can bring him such misery.
If she is playin' him for a fool,
He's the last one to know.
Lovin' eyes can never see.
When a man loves a woman
He can do her no wrong,
He can never want
Some other girl.
Yes,When a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels,
'Cause baby, baby, you're my world
When a man loves a woman....

Hi Bernard !
I had never paid attention to the words when, as a Young girl, I danced to that music

When a man loves a woman,
Down deep in his soul,
She can bring him such misery

A woman has such a power on the man who loves her ! The other way round (when a woman loves a man) is true, of course !

This song sung by this man were a long time the best performance in the world.
It is not valid only for men of course

Il ne faut pas danser sur cet air car on tombe immédiatement amoureux surtout si l'on est encore jeune ! I can not translate this !
