Hard Headed Woman

I'm looking for a hard headed woman
One who will take me for myself
And if I find my hard headed woman
I won't need nobody else
no, no, no...

I'm looking for a hard headed woman
One who will make me do my best
And if I find my hard headed woman
I know the rest of my life will be blessed
yes, yes, yes...

I know a lot of fancy dancers
People who can glide you on the floor
They move so smooth, but have no answers
When you ask, "What'd you come here for?"
"I don't know..."

I know many fine feathered friends
But their friendliness depends on how you do
They know many sure-fire ways
To find out the one who pays
And how you do

I'm looking for a hard headed woman
One who will make me feel so good
And if I find my hard headed woman
I know my life will be as it should
Yes, yes, yes...

This is a beautiful song by Cat Stevens.  You can hear in his voice how much he wants to find this woman - someone who can keep him grounded and remind him of the things he loves and all the reasons he felt the need to ever start writing songs. 

I'm looking for that woman inside myself.  I know she's in there, and I need her to come out and help me, because right now I'm weak and I know I'm not where I should be.
