And she'll promise you more,
Than the Garden of Eden.
Then she'll carelessly cut you,
And laugh while you're bleedin'.
But she'll bring out the best,
And the worst you can be.

--

Oh--she takes care of hersel.f
She can wait if she wants,
She's ahead of her time.
Oh--and she never gives out,
And she never gives in,
She just changes her mind.

        - Billy Joel



Much of this song reminds me of Ellen ... she's not a woman, but she fits a lot of the lyrics...she's ahead of her time, that's for certain.
