Woman
John & Yoko And The Plastic Ono Band With The Harlem Community Choir Lyrics

Woman
Addressing the one significant woman in his life, expressing an emotion of reverence and admiration towards her

I can hardly express
Acknowledging his inarticulateness to express the overwhelming emotions he feels for that woman

My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
Regretful of his prior actions that may have caused pain to that woman, feeling remorseful and sorry for his insensitivity

After all, I´m forever in your debt
Realizing that he owes her a lot, acknowledging the significant contributions of that woman in his life

And woman
An address, directing his affectionate words towards that special woman in his life

I will try to express
Commitment to making an effort to articulate and communicate his innermost feelings to that woman

My inner feeling and thankfulness
Gratefulness for the person that she is and expressing the most profound feelings he has for her

For showing me the meaning of success
Recognizing that he has realized true success with her support and guidance in his life

Ooh, well, well
An interjection, expressing a mix of excitement and admiration

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
A repetitive melodic phrase used to build rhythm and add emphasis

Woman
Reiterating the focus of his affection towards that one significant woman in his life

I know you understand
Having confidence that that woman can comprehend the deep feelings he has for her

The little child inside the man
Acknowledging a vulnerable part of himself that she is aware of and accepting of

Please remember my life is in your hands
Expressing his dependence on and trust in that woman to bring joy, meaning, and purpose to his life

Hold me close to your heart
A request for her to remain close to him, indicating his profound attachment to her

However distant, don't keep us apart
A plea to keep them together and united, irrespective of the physical, social, or emotional distance between them

After all it is written in the stars
Acknowledging that their connection is destined to be, as if written in the astronomical bodies

Well, woman
An address, directing his affectionate words towards that special woman in his life

Please let me explain
Requesting an opportunity to elucidate his intentions and emotions behind his actions

I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain
Regretful of the emotional pain and agony that she may have experienced due to his prior conduct

So let me tell you again and again and again
A promise to keep repeating his love and affection towards her, so profound and true

I love you, yeah, yeah
Expressing his feelings of love and affection towards her, in the most sincere and profound way

Now and forever
Eternal commitment to staying by her side, in love and devotion, for all eternity

I love you, yeah, yeah
Reiterating his feelings of love and affection towards her, as deeply as he possibly can
