1972 (Talk Of The Town Concert)

ABOUT the song, I've Never Been A Woman Before:
The song, I've Never Been A Woman Before, was recorded and released on Shirley's 1972 LP titled, 'I Capricorn'

LYRICS:
You touched me in the sun
I somehow knew
I'd been the only one
How wonderful the moment
When the boy became a man
You warmed me in the night
And you taught me
How to feel
But it all would seem unreal to try
And go back there again

We walked away from time
I'd like to keep the moment
That was mine
I'd like to touch the man
I met just once
Before I go

Oh I've been to many places
And I've opened every door
I've done everything a girl could do and more

But I've never been a woman before
No, I've never been a woman
before...
