In 2001, the band regrouped, with guitarist James Valentine added to the line-up, and pursued a new direction under the name: Maroon 5. At this point, Jesse Carmichael switched to playing the keyboards and this has become his main instrument in the band (although he also plays rhythm guitar to this day). After these changes, Maroon 5 signed with Octone Records and released their debut album, "Songs About Jane", in June 2002. The album's lead single "Harder to Breathe", received heavy airplay, which helped the album to debut at number six on the Billboard 200 chart. The band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2005. For the next few years, the band toured extensively worldwide in support of Songs About Jane and produced two live recordings: 2004's "1.22.03.Acoustic" and 2005's "Live Friday the 13th". In 2006, Ryan Dusick officially left the band after suffering from serious wrist and shoulder injuries and was replaced by Matt Flynn. The band recorded their second album, "It Won't Be Soon Before Long" and released it in May 2007. The album reached number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and the lead single, "Makes Me Wonder", became the band's first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100.
On September 21, 2010, the band released their third studio album entitled "Hands All Over". It was re-released in 2011 to include the single "Moves like Jagger" (featuring Christina Aguilera). While the original version of the album received mixed reviews, "Moves like Jagger" reached the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The band released their next album, "Overexposed", on June 26, 2012. All four singles of the album were really successful on the charts - for example, the second single from Overexposed, "One More Night" (released on June 19, 2012), reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2014, the band signed with Interscope Records and released their fifth studio album, "V", with the very-first line-up of six official band members, as keyboardist and backing vocalist PJ Morton became an official member in 2012. The album debuted at top of the weekly Billboard 200 chart. Since its debut in 2002, the band has sold more than 15 million albums in the United States and over 100 million singles and 27 million albums worldwide.
Woman Ft. Sam Farrar
Maroon 5 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Would you tell me
That the time just isn't right
And if i ever find the key you hide so well
Will you tell me
That I can spend the night
Leaving your smell on my coat
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah ow wow
If I could bottle up the chills that you give me
I would keep them
In a jar next to my bed
And if i should ever draw a picture of a woman
It is you
That would come flowing through my pen
Leaving your clothes on the floor
Making me walk out the door
And i still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Ow
Helplessly melting
As i stand next to the sun
As you burn me
I am screaming out for more
Drink every drop of liquid
In the heat that I've become
Pop me open
Spoon me out onto the floor
Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
Fail to understand
Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah
The song "Woman" by Maroon 5 featuring Sam Farrar is a love song that expresses desire, confusion, and fascination towards a woman. The opening verse talks about the singer's desire to be close to the woman he loves, but she keeps holding back; he doesn't know if the time is right or if she's willing to let him in. In the second verse, the singer talks about how he wants to capture the feeling he gets when he's with her and save it forever. He wants to draw her image, but her essence cannot be captured by mere art alone.
The chorus of the song talks about the confusion and fascination he feels towards this woman. He cannot understand what it is about her that draws him in; he only knows that it is powerful and that he cannot resist.
The bridge speaks of his complete surrender to her. He is helpless in the face of her beauty and passion, and he wants to be consumed by her completely. He wants to drink her in and experience every part of her, even though it may mean his destruction.
In summary, the song "Woman" is a passionate, vulnerable, and honest love song about a man's fascination with a woman he cannot understand, but loves deeply.
Line by Line Meaning
If I'd be so inclined to climb up beside you
If I wanted to get close to you
Would you tell me that the time just isn't right
Would you turn me down
And if i ever find the key you hide so well
And if I ever get to know you deeply
Will you tell me that I can spend the night
Will you let me spend time with you
Leaving your smell on my coat
Your scent lingering on me
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
Your essence staying with me
I still fail to understand
I'm still confused about
What it is about this woman
What makes you so irresistible
If I could bottle up the chills that you give me
If I could capture the feeling you give me
I would keep them in a jar next to my bed
I would hold onto it forever
And if I should ever draw a picture of a woman
And if I were to make art of a woman
It is you that would come flowing through my pen
I can only picture you
Making me walk out the door
You turning me away
Helplessly melting as I stand next to the sun
Being overwhelmed by your presence
As you burn me, I am screaming out for more
Despite getting hurt, I still want more
Drink every drop of liquid in the heat that I've become
Consuming everything about you
Pop me open
Breaking down my barriers
Spoon me out onto the floor
Lose myself to my desire for you
