A Natural Woman
Céline Dion & David Foster Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I used to feel uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Oh it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
And I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Oh till your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful
Of what I'm livin' for
'Cause if I make you happy
I don't need to do more
'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman, oh
Oh baby what you've done to me
You make me feel so good inside
And I, I just want to be close to you
Because you make me feel so alive
Oh what you've done to me, oh baby
Close to you because you make me feel
So alive
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
(You make me feel)
Oh baby what you do to me
Can make me feel so good inside
I just want to be, I just want to be
I love what you've done
(Natural woman) woman

Lookin' out on the morning rain
Reflecting on a gloomy situation
I used to feel uninspired
Having no motivation
And when I knew I had to face another day
Feeling burdened by the repetition of life
Oh it made me feel so tired
Exhausted mentally and emotionally
Before the day I met you
Before finding someone special
Life was so unkind
Life was cruel and harsh
But you're the key to my peace of mind
Finding inner peace and happiness through love
'Cause you make me feel
You have a positive influence on me
Like a natural woman
Empowered and confident in my femininity
When my soul was in the lost and found
Feeling lost and directionless in life
You came along to claim it
Finding purpose and direction through love
And I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Unable to identify personal issues
Oh till your kiss helped me name it
Receiving clarity and understanding through love
Now I'm no longer doubtful
Having confidence and clarity
Of what I'm livin' for
Aware of my purpose in life
'Cause if I make you happy
Finding fulfillment in making my partner happy
I don't need to do more
Nothing more is required for happiness
Oh baby what you've done to me
Expressing gratitude for a positive impact on life
You make me feel so good inside
Bringing happiness and contentment from within
And I, I just want to be close to you
Wanting to be close emotionally and physically
Because you make me feel so alive
Feeling invigorated and energized in love
Oh what you've done to me, oh baby
Repeating thanks for a positive influence
Close to you because you make me feel
Seeking closeness because of a positive impact
So alive
Feeling inspired and energized by love
You make me feel
Affirming a positive influence
Like a natural woman
Feeling empowered and confident in femininity
