[Intro]
Oh-oh, mmm

[Verse 1]
I'm not always strong
And sometimes I'm even wrong
But I win when I choose
And I can't stand to lose
But I can't always be
The rock that you see
When the nights get too long
And I just can't go on

[Chorus]
The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
'Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah, the woman in me
Needs the man in you

[Verse 2]
When the world wants too much
And it feels cold and out of touch
Ooh, it's a beautiful place
When you kiss my face

[Chorus]
The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
'Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah, the woman in me
Needs the man in you
Yeah, the woman in me
Needs the man in you

[Outro]
Mmm, I need you, baby
Yeah, yeah, oh baby
Oh-oh, mmm, oh
Yeah, yeah, I need you, baby

Shania Twain

Sometimes referred to as the “queen of country pop,” Shania Twain is the best selling female artist in the history of country music, having sold 85 million+ records. She is the first and only female music artist to have three albums in a row certified Diamond by the RIAA.

Shania Twain retired from performing in 2009, citing a weakening singing voice, later consulting specialists who diagnosed her with dysphonia, likely a result of lyme disease. She returned to the stage in her show Still the One in 2012, and begun touring again in 2015.

In October 2016 she told Rolling Stone she had new music coming “really soon” which followed her plans to release her fifth studio album when she was 50.
