Play The Woman

Cynthia Erivo




Do you want to start a game where I guess where you are?
I’ll close my eyes, hold my arms out, and try to close the space between us
I could run these hands of mine down the map of your spine
Feel how your heat against my fingertips could make the blood in me rush

Could you play the woman for me?
Go slow ’cause I like what I see
‘Cause when your body moves the way I want
I get closer even when you stop
Could you play the woman for me?
Then I’ll be what you need
No, no

Innocently, I wanna tell you something
Shame is set free and I just wanna be honest, no, no
When I’m all alone, you know I think of you
Got my mind afloat like what you put me through
And I won’t resist, take any chance to be with you

Could you play the woman for me?
Go slow ’cause I like what I see
‘Cause when your body moves the way I want
I get closer even when you stop
Could you play the woman for me?
Then I’ll be what you need
I’ll be what you need

I’ll be just what you need
If you play the woman for me
I’ll be just what you need
If you play the woman for me, for me

Play the woman for me
Go slow ’cause I like what I see
‘Cause when your body moves the way I want
I get closer even when you stop
Could you play the woman for me?
Then I’ll be what you need
No, no
I’ll be what you need
Oh no
I’ll be what you need
