Woman in Love
Young Divas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She laughed in my face, told me good-bye
Said "Don't think about it, you can go crazy
Anything can happen, anything can end
Don't try to fight it, don't try to save me"

[Chorus]
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces
She don't want to see
She's a woman in love, but it's not me

Well alright, do what you want
Don't try to talk, don't say nothin'
She used to be the kind of woman
You have and you hold, she could understand the problem
She let the little things go

[Chorus]

Time after time, night after night
She would look up at me
And say she was lonely
I don't understand the world today
I don't understand what she needed
I gave her everything she threw it all away




On nothin'
She's a woman in love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Woman in Love by Young Divas talks about a woman who is in love with someone who is going to break her heart into pieces. The woman rejects the singer's advice to avoid going crazy because anything can happen, and she insists on staying with her love interest despite the warning signs. The chorus repeats the phrase "she's a woman in love, but it's not me," indicating that the singer is not the love interest in question.


The song speaks to the theme of unrequited love and the pain that comes with it. The woman is so infatuated with her love interest that she is willing to overlook red flags and warnings from others. The chorus echoes the sentiment that the singer cannot be the one to bear the brunt of the woman's heartbreak, and he eventually lets her be with her love interest despite the pain it causes him.


Overall, Woman in Love is a timeless love ballad that speaks to the human condition of wanting what we cannot have. It is a poignant reminder that love is not always a fairy tale and that heartbreak is a part of the journey.
