Phenomenal Woman


Pretty woman wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I ‘m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips
The stride of my step,
The curl of my hips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman ,
that’s me.


I walk into the room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman that’s me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can’t see.
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman

Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman
that’s me


Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
The palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
‘cause I’m a woman
phenomenally .
phenomenal woman
that’s me.

I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as “making a life”.

“I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.”
“I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.”

“I’ve learned that everyday you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.”
I have learned that I still have a lot to learn.
I’ve learned that people will forget what you said , people will forget what you did but people will never forget how you made them feel
