Woman
Legs Diamond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or sick and grievin', cause I got you.
I just can't understand,
Why that you make me, feel uneasy, each and every day.
Woman I just can't explain,
How you do it, you put me through it, and make me pay.
You can never feel just what I do,
To love and to want you, but to let you go.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Why is it that you cannot comprehend,
Nor even bend, around to what I say.
In the beginning I had the belief, or was it the relief,
That you were what I was looking for.
It was an expected surprise,
That look in your eyes, mesmerized by my doubts.
You can never feel just what I do,
To love and to want you, but to let you go.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Woman can't you hear it,
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know, don't you know, my heart is talking.
Can't you hear it, can't you hear it now.
Oh my heart is talking to you...
The song "Woman" by Legs Diamond is a heartfelt lament from a man who doesn't understand why his relationship is so difficult, yet he can't let go of the woman he loves. The opening lines express his confusion, as he feels tired of believing and sick and grieving but still has her by his side. He doesn't comprehend why she makes him feel uneasy every day, despite their closeness. He can't put into words how she affects him, putting him through trials and making him pay for his feelings. He knows that she will never be able to reciprocate the extent of his love for her, but he can't help feeling the way he does. He loves and wants her but has to let her go.
In the second verse, he asks her if she can hear his heart talking, begging her to understand his feelings for her. He questions why she can't comprehend or bend around his words, even though she's someone he believed he was looking for. He acknowledges that she surprised him and mesmerized him with her eyes, creating doubts that he never believed possible. He still longs for her, agonizing over the realization that she will never know how he feels.
Overall, the song is a poignant reflection of an unrequited love that can't be resolved. The woman in question is not necessarily to blame, but the singer cannot come to terms with his own feelings, and this internal battle is tearing him apart.
