Sometimes she's a child I love her that way her little girl smile just begging to play
But when I'm confused and when I am weak

She rocks me gently takes me to her bosom
Feeds me her love and gives me her strenghts
She's velvet and steel (she's gentle and strong)
She's a lamb (she's a tiger) and I'll stand beside her
My beautiful spider spinning her web of velvet and steel
[ strings ]
Blow in my mind like a soft evening breeze she's patient and kind so anxious to please
But she's like a storm if she needs to be
Like a tornado wiping out anything that gets in her way she does it for me
She's velvet and steel...
