## Lyrics
[verse]
I don't need you tellin' me who to be
Got my own mind, my own destiny
If you want this, better understand
I move on my own, I make my own plan

[chorus]
What a woman needs is respect and space
Someone who can love me at my own pace
Not a puppet, not a prize to hold
I decide the story that gets told

[verse]
You can bring me flowers, that's alright
But don't you dare control my night
I'll be soft when I wanna be soft
But I won't be quiet, I won't be lost

[chorus]
What a woman needs is respect and space
Someone who can love me at my own pace
Not a puppet, not a prize to hold
I decide the story that gets told

[bridge]
So if you're ready to meet me halfway
I'll give you everything, I won't run away
But if you're looking for someone to tame
Baby you and I won't be the same

[chorus]
What a woman needs is respect and space
Someone who can love me at my own pace
Not a puppet, not a prize to hold
I decide the story that gets told
