When You Really Love Someone
(Alicia Keys, Kerry Brothers Jr)

I'm a woman
Lord knows it's hard
I need a real man to give me what I need
Sweet attention, love and tenderness
When it's real it's unconditional
I'm telling ya'll
Cause a man just ain't a man if he ain't man enough

To love ya when you're right
Love ya when you're wrong
Love ya when you're weak
Love ya when you're strong
Take you higher when the world got you feeling low
He's giving you his last, cause he's thinking of you first
Giving comfort when he's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really really love someone
I'm telling ya'll, I'm telling ya'll

Cause you're a real man
And Lord knows it's hard
Sometimes you just need a woman's touch
Sweet affection, love and support
When it's really unconditional
I'm telling yall, oh
Cause a woman ain't a woman if she ain't woman enough

To love ya when you're right
Love ya when you're wrong
Love ya when you're weak
Love ya when you're strong
Take you higher when the world got you feeling low
She's giving you her best, even when you're at your worst
Giving comfort when she's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling ya'll, I'm telling ya'll
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Sometimes you're gonna argue, sometimes you're gonna fight
Sometime it's gonna feel it'll never be right
But something so strong keeps you holding on
It don't make sense but it makes a good song
Cause a man just ain't a man if he ain't man enough

To love ya when you're right
Love ya when you're wrong
Love ya when you're weak
Love ya when you're strong
Love ya when you're strong
Take you higher when the world got you feeling low
He's giving you his last, coz he's thinking of you first
Giving comfort when he's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling yall, I'm telling yall
I'm telling yall that if a woman ain't a woman if she ain't woman enough
To love ya
Love ya when you're right
Love ya when you're wrong
To hold you
Love ya when you're weak
Love ya when you're strong
Take you higher and higher
when the world got you feeling low
She's giving you her best, even when you're at your worst
Giving comfort when she's thinking that you're hurt
That's what's done when you really love someone
I'm telling yall, I'm telling yall
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm, mm, yeah
