[P. Wagner/P. Wagner]

[This is a very new one, written in November '90 and previously unreleased.]

Woman, I know it's not easy to say
But I miss you the longer I'm so far away
You know me, it's not easy to find the words
Woman, I miss you each day in the desert

Woman, tomorrow I might bite the dust
Believe me, I don't want to stay but I must
God help me, I'm so afraid, don't let me down
Oh, woman, I love you, I love you, I love you,

How I long for you, woman
We belong to each other...

Woman, I'm so afraid, don't let me down
Oh, woman, I love you, I love you, I love you,

In the gunfire's roaring sound
When I'm falling to the ground
I can see your face so real
Oh, how I long for you, woman

We belong to each other...

I wish it would be like before
In the days of the cold war
We could play around in peace
Oh how I long for you woman





We belong to each other...

Overall Meaning

The song "Woman" by Mirage is an emotional ballad that conveys a sense of longing and fear for a loved one. The lyrics speak of the distance between the singer and a woman he loves, presumably due to a conflict or war. He struggles to find the words to express his feelings and admits to being afraid, but declares his love for her nonetheless. The chorus repeats the line "how I long for you, woman" emphasizing the depth of his yearning for her. The second verse takes a darker turn with the singer acknowledging that he might not survive, but still clings to his love for this woman. The last verse paints a picture of a better past when things were simpler and they could be together without fear, underscoring the sense of loss and hopelessness in the present.


The lyrics capture the intensity of emotions experienced during times of war or conflict, where separation and danger are ever present. The song is a classic example of a power ballad, with the soaring vocals and heart-wrenching lyrics, accompanied by melodic guitar work. It's a memorable track that stands out for its evocative and emotional impact.
