[G][Gm]

[Verse 1]
[G]I miss your
gentleness that spoiled me
[Gm]Your tender kiss that so aroused
[G]me
I miss your nakedness next [Gm]to mine
Your [G]sweet familiar scent has left me
[Gm]With memories that come and get me
[G]In the dreams I have at nig[Gm]ht

[Verse 2]
[C]I need you more than I can say
[Cm]How can I express
Through all [D]these words I know
[G]I'm a lady, yes I am
[Dm]With my destination planned
I [G]don't have time for babies no, no
[Dm]And it's hard, hard to keep a man

[Verse 3]
[C]But I tell you one thing
that I'm gonna do
I'm [Cm]gon na have my cake and eat it too
[D]One day, some way, somehow,
some[G]where
[Gm]Somewhere, [G]somewhere
Can you wait baby
Some[Gm]where[G]
Can you wait [Gm]baby

[Verse 4]
I [G]count my blessings, make my wishes
[Gm]And still I find myself suspicious
[G]That truly love isn't just a m[Gm]yth
And it's [G]hard to fall in love
when you know
[Gm]You got to rush to do the next show
[G]And you can't be with
the one [Gm]you're with
[G]But

[Verse 5]
[C]I need you more than I can say
How [Cm]can I express
Through all [D]these words I know
[G]I'm a lady, yes I am
[Dm]With my situation planned
I [G]don't have time for babies no, no
[Dm]And it's hard, hard to keep a [C]man
But I tell you one thing that
I'm gonna to do
[Cm]I'll have my cake and eat it too
[G]One [D]day[G][Dm][G]
[C]Tell you[Em] one thi[C]ng that I'm gonna do
I'll [Cm]have my cake and eat it too
[G]One day, [Dm]somehow, some way
[C]I'll tell you one thing that I'm gonna do
[Cm]I'm gonna have my cake, baby, an[D]d you
[G]One day, som[Dm]eway, someway
[C]Sugar
