(x2)
You're the only woman I need
And baby you know it
You can make this beggar a king
A clown or a poet
Cos I've got nothing to hide
Just a piece of mind
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
Long as you love me
It's alright
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
You got the power
To turn on the light
(x2)
Everybody tells me I'm wrong
To want you so badly
But there's a force driving me on
I'll follow it gladly
So let them laugh, I don't care
All I want is you by my side
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
Long as you love me
It's alright
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
You got the power
To turn on the light
E (tacet)
(x2)
You're the only woman I need
And baby you know it
You can make this beggar a king
A clown or a poet
Cos I got nothing to hide
Just a piece of mind
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
Long as you love me
It's alright
Bend me, shape me
Anyway you want me
