She Knows Now
Stephen Marley Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

And she be sorrow tomorrow
Cos she know now what the next day will bring
She's crying for joy weeping in silence
Cos she know now what the next day will bring
Cos she know now what the next day will bring

Never let a woman tell you that she loves you
When she don't really care that much

Why man why man why man

Never tell woman that you love her
When you don't really care that much for her
She cryin cryin cryin

And she be sorrow tomorrow
Cos she know now what the next day will bring
She's crying for joy weeping inside
Cos she know now what the next day will bring
Cos she know now what the next day will bring

She feeling as if she lost

Now she pay the cost
She's where we

Overall Meaning

This passage from Stephen Marley's song "She Knows Now" portrays a woman who has come to know the truth about a relationship that she thought was full of love and care. She is full of sorrow because now she knows what the next day will bring. She is crying, but it is not only tears of sadness but also joy because she finally knows the truth about her relationship. The singer seems to be urging men to be truthful and not to tell a woman that they love her when they don't care that much for her because it will only lead to tears and heartbreak. The woman in the song has paid a heavy price for love that wasn't sincere, and she now feels lost and alone.

The song highlights the importance of honesty and sincerity in relationships. It shows the painful consequences of dishonesty, which often lead to heartbreak and confusion. The passage also touches on the sensitive issue of emotional manipulation, where someone may pretend to be in love with another person, leading them on and causing them emotional pain.
