A Man and a Woman Lyrics – Lizzie Curry

A Man and a Woman Text

---

LIZZIE
File… Your wife—what was she like? Was she real beautiful?

FILE
Yes. Yes, she was.

LIZZIE
That’s what I was afr—that’s what I thought. So—between the two of you—how’d it happen?

FILE
I don’t know. The worst part about it—I just don’t know… I wonder if I ever will.

A man and a woman
Can be so close together
That they almost become like one.
The promise to love till life is done.

A man and a woman
Can be part of each other,
But somehow it is very strange.
The thing that you love the most
Can change.

Hard times come
And when they do,
You don’t mean what you say.
But once you have hurt each other,
You start to drift away.

Then the man and the woman
Who were so close together
Can be suddenly so alone,
Forgetting the lovely moments
They’ve known

And the man and the woman
Must go back to just living
All alone.

LIZZIE
It doesn’t have to be like that.
It doesn’t need to end that way.
I know it’s hard, and yet I feel
That you can make it last
Forever.

For a man and a woman
Can be so close together
That they almost become like one.
They promise to love till life
Is done.

A man and a woman
Can be part of each other,
And though troubles may come and go,
The love that you have inside
Will grow.

Hard times come
But that’s all right,
You know that you’ll pull through.
As long as you have each other,

FILE & LIZZIE
There’s nothing you can’t do.
And the man and the woman
Who were so close together
Can be closer as time goes by,

LIZZIE
As long as they bother are willing to try.

FILE & LIZZIE
Then the man and the woman
Will grow closer
Until the day they die.

FILE
It may be true.
I just don’t know.

LIZZIE
I feel so sure
It could be so.

FILE & LIZZIE
A love can last
Until you die!
