Colin Hay Woman's Face Lyrics

Don’t put on that makeup
Don’t cover your skin
Let it be naked
And let me look in
Don’t put on the lipstick
Just this once
I know you’ve got cracked lips
From racing the wind

And if you ask me what I am seeking
Is there some truth that I embrace
I’m simple enough
And seeing is believing
And what I see
Is a woman’s face

You don’t look like a model
And thank God for that
You look so beautiful in your morning hat
Don’t put on those earrings
That you love so much
From where I am sitting
You can do without that touch

And if you ask me
Why I am staring
It’s as innocent as a caress
There’s nowhere but here We’re no longer hiding
Nothing’s as free as a woman’s face

Now you are laughing
From deep in your soul
The lines tell a story
That’s not done being told
Your eyes hold your secrets
They never shall tell
Blue as the ocean
And deep as a well

And if you ask me what I am seeking
Is there some truth that has such grace
I’m simple enough and seeing is believing
And what I see right in front of me is a woman’s face

You know you make me crazy baby
When you give me that pout
Let’s just stay in
Let’s not go out
Let’s go leaping, leaping, leaping
Leaping about
