Woman
Flyte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not a penny to my name
I Blew it all down in Texas,
On Women and Cocaine
I've been riding an endless highway
A highway long and cold
The only shoulder for me to cry on
Was the woman on the side of the road
Tearin up my soul
She makes a man grow old
But I love her just the same
Had me a dark eyed lover,
She had a dark eyed lovers name
And I gave her all my loving,
But she didnt love me the same
The one bad thing about her
She played a game from the start
She couldnt give a damn
and all around, she just kept breakin my heart
Woman she can be so mean
Sooooo Mean
Tearin' all of my dreams
But I love her just the same
Well I guess I'll keep on wandrin
All around 'till I see
If the women I find are Women enough
For the woman and the man in me
And I know if I keep lookin
Gonna get what I need
As a matter of fact I'm checking one out
And right now she is checkin on me
Woman she can be so cold
Tearing up my soul
Makes a man grow old
But I love her just the same.
The Flyte song "Woman" is about a man who has been on a never-ending journey fueled by his obsession with women and cocaine. He is now stuck in New York City with no money left, having blown all his funds while in Texas. The lyrics suggest that he has been traveling for a long time, and the only comfort he has had on this endless journey is the companionship of women, who have also been a source of pain and struggle for him.
The first verse portrays the character's struggle to come to terms with his addiction and his dependence on women. He is fraught with anxiety about his current situation, but the only solace he can find is with the woman by his side, even though she can be cold and mean.
The second verse recounts the story of a past lover, someone he gave his all to, but who didn't reciprocate his feelings. She played games with his heart, causing him emotional pain and tearing up his dreams. However, despite it all, he still loves her.
The final verse speaks to the character's restlessness, suggesting that he is still wandering, still searching for the right woman who can satisfy both the "woman and the man in me." The lyrics imply a sense of optimism and hope for the future, with the character believing he will eventually meet the right woman for him.
Overall, the song touches on themes of addiction, dependence, heartbreak, and love. It suggests that even though love can be painful and heartbreaking, it's still worth it in the end.

This is the saddest song I’ve ever heard. Makes me want to cry, but I can’t get it out of my head.

There is a mistake in your information. This UK band Flyte was formed in 2013. You are mixing them up with another band which is also called Flyte.
