Woman In Love
Barabra Streisand Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life is a moment to space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place

I kiss the morning goodbye
But down inside
You know we never know why
The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong

I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'll do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I'll defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

With you eternally mine
In love there is

No measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and I

Live in each other's hearts
We may be oceans away
You feel my love

I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall

But I give you it all
I am a woman in love
And I'll do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I'll defend
Over and over again

What'do I do?
I am a woman in love
And I'm talking to you
You know I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It's a right I'll defend
Over and over again
I am a woman in love
And I'll do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I'll defend




Over and over again...
end.

As the song progresses, Streisand expresses her willingness to go to any lengths to keep the person she loves in her world.


The lyrics depict the intense desire and craving for love by using metaphors such as "I kiss the morning goodbye," symbolizing longing and waiting for that person to arrive. The line, "I turn away from the wall, I stumble and fall, but I give you it all," shows that love is not just about happiness, but it can also be demanding and challenging. The phrase "What do I do?" indicates how powerless the singer feels when it comes to their love.


Overall, "Woman in Love" showcases the yearning and vulnerability of a woman in love. The song continues to be a classic love ballad, touching the hearts of listeners all around the world.
