Cold Woman
Eternal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Teach me your way of lovin
Uncomprehensible and discret,
Your kisses are a snowy mountain
That melts in my interior.

I dont understand your claims – my passion is lost in your unmoving body
- don't insult my humanity – my male logic needs an explanation – my
Weakness ties down the freedom to shake the wings of my sex.

Don't think about the rest, you just have a rule, your own freedom.

Tell me your fear cold woman
I fear society.

Cold woman strip yourself before me
And express your most hidden feelings,
Dont keep your passion to yourself for
Foolish restrictions.

Don't think about the rest, you just have a rule, your own freedom.





Tell me your fear cold woman
I fear society.

Overall Meaning

He pleads with her to "strip [herself] before [him] and express [her] most hidden feelings," urging her not to be held back by "foolish restrictions." Despite these entreaties, the singer recognizes that his lover's approach to love is ultimately hers alone: she "just [has] a rule, [her] own freedom."
