Woman
BAILEY PHILIP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are the thunder
You're the lightning up above
I call your name out
Woman, you want love

And when I touch you
I see heaven in your eyes
And when I kiss you
There's a storm rising within me

Woman, stay, show me the way
Into your heart, light up the dark
I've always dreamed
Of the love that you bring

Oh woman, stay, don't turn me away
You're the angel of light
Who leaves in the night, but I need you
Can't you see, I love you woman?

You are the fire
You are the wind that turns my heart
You are the sunlight
Shining beauty in the dark

And when I saw you
I felt your power in my soul
And when you touched me
I knew I had lost control

Woman, stay, show me the way
Into your heart, light up the dark
I've always dreamed
Of the love that you bring

Oh woman, stay, don't turn me away
You're the angel of light
Who leaves in the night, but I need you
Can't you see, I love you woman?

But you are the fire
You are the wind
You are the sunlight
I need you ?

Now I know
Heaven sent you from above
You are woman
You were sent for me to love

Woman, stay but you'll go away
Now my eyes can see
All the love that I need
For the first time I can believe in woman

I can believe in woman
I need you by my side
You are the flower, you are the rain




You bring me sunlight
You bring me pain, woman

Overall Meaning

The Bailey Phillip’s song “Woman” is a beautiful ode to the power of the female gender. The lyrics speak to the idea that women are the driving force behind much of the beauty and greatness in the world and that they possess a certain power that men cannot deny. The first verse speaks of the sheer force of nature that women represent, comparing them to thunder and lightning in the sky. The chorus shows the singer’s desire to be with a woman, to see her light up the darkness of his life and to experience the storm of emotion that comes with love.


The second verse continues to illustrate the power of women, this time comparing them to a fire, wind, and sunlight. The singer feels the weight of this power whenever he is around the woman and acknowledges that he has lost control. The chorus repeats once again, reinforcing the idea that this woman is everything the singer has ever dreamed of and that his love for her is unyielding. The bridge brings in the idea that this woman was sent from heaven above and the singer cannot believe that he has finally found someone who he believes in.

@user-hw6wi4os6q

Είμαι τυχερός που έζησα τη δεκαετία του '80, φανατικός με τη μουσική από μικρός, 8χρονων αγόρασα το πρώτο μου ράδιο κασετόφωνο (5000δρχ), οποίο τραγούδι μου άρεσε από το ράδιο το ηχογραφούσα. Αξέχαστες εποχές αλησμονητες!!!!

@theokikilas2856
