Woman
♪♫ Maroon 5 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Would you tell me
That the time just isn't right
And if i ever find the key you hide so well
Will you tell me
That I can spend the night
Leaving your smell on my coat
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah ow wow
If I could bottle up the chills that you give me
I would keep them
In a jar next to my bed
And if i should ever draw a picture of a woman
It is you
That would come flowing through my pen
Leaving your clothes on the floor
Making me walk out the door
And i still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Ow
Helplessly melting
As i stand next to the sun
As you burn me
I am screaming out for more
Drink every drop of liquid
In the heat that I've become
Pop me open
Spoon me out onto the floor
Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
Fail to understand
Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah
The lyrics of Maroon 5's "Woman" express the singer's desire for a woman he is clearly infatuated with. He asks if she would reject him if he made a move to be with her, but also wonders if she would give in and spend the night with him if he found the key to her heart. He then goes on to say that he cannot comprehend what it is about this particular woman that he finds so alluring, but he does know that her scent and taste linger on him, even after she is gone. He implies that he cannot resist her, even though she has the power to hurt him.
The repetition of leaving her smell and taste on him demonstrates the impact that this woman has on him. He is consumed with thoughts of her and desires her presence and touch. The lyrics also suggest that while he may be aware of the power she holds over him, he is willing to take the risk to be with her, even if she may hurt him.
Overall, the song "Woman" is a testament to how the singer is helplessly drawn to this woman despite the consequences that may come with their relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
If I'd be so inclined to climb up beside you
If I were to express a desire to be near you
Would you tell me / That the time just isn't right
Would you inform me that it's not feasible currently
And if i ever find the key you hide so well
If I happen to discover the secret you meticulously keep hidden
Will you tell me / That I can spend the night
Would you allow me to stay over
Leaving your smell on my coat
Your scent lingers and reminds me of you
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
Your touch leaves a tinge of flavor on me
I still fail to understand / What it is about this woman / Yeah ow wow
I struggle to comprehend the inexplicable allure of this lady
If I could bottle up the chills that you give me
If I was able to capture the sensation you elicit
I would keep them / In a jar next to my bed
I would treasure them close to me
And if i should ever draw a picture of a woman
In case I decide to illustrate a lady
It is you / That would come flowing through my pen
Your image is what would take shape on my artistry
Making me walk out the door
Your actions causing me to exit
Helplessly melting / As i stand next to the sun
I'm powerless as I succumb to your radiance
As you burn me / I am screaming out for more
Even as I suffer the consequences of falling for you, I crave it
Drink every drop of liquid / In the heat that I've become
Savoring every moment of the passionate heat you've ignited within me
Pop me open / Spoon me out onto the floor
You have the ability to control and consume me completely
Fail to understand
Incapable of comprehending
What it is about this woman
The unexplainable qualities of this lady
Ow
Leaving your smell on my coat
Your scent lingers and reminds me of you
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
Your touch leaves a tinge of flavor on me
I still fail to understand / What it is about this woman
I struggle to comprehend the inexplicable allure of this lady
Yeah

All I need's a little love in my life
All I need's a little love in the dark
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
I need a little loving tonight
Hold me so I'm not falling apart
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
Yeah
Shotgun, aimed at my heart, you got one
Tear me apart in this song
How do we call this love
I tried, to run away but your eyes
Tell me to stay, oh why
Why do we call this love?
It seems like we've been losing control
Somebody tell me I'm not alone
When I say
All I need's a little love in my life
All I need's a little love in the dark
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
I need a little loving tonight
Hold me so I'm not falling apart
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
Uh, maybe some part of you just hates me
You pick me up and play me
How do we call this love?
One time tell me you need me tonight
To make it easy, you lie
And say it's all for love
It seems like we've been losing control
Somebody tell me I'm not alone
When I say
All I need's a little love in my life
All I need's a little love in the dark
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
I need a little loving tonight
Hold me so I'm not falling apart
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
Me and my broken heart
Me and my broken
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's just me
It's just me
It's just me
Me and my broken heart
All I need's a little love in my life (baby)
All I need's a little love in the dark
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
I need a little loving tonight
Hold me so I'm not falling apart
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
