You're the Only Woman
Eternal Love Echoes: David Pack's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Oh baby
Expressing affection or endearment.
Say, now, you
Addressing the partner or listener.
You talk about The things I do
Acknowledging discussion about the speaker's actions.
But baby, I yeah,
Expressing a willingness to explain.
I'll try and explain the reasons why
Committing to clarify the reasons behind the actions.
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout the things
Reflecting on previous conversations.
That we said late last night,
Recalling a discussion from the previous night.
When every word I said
Admitting communication issues.
Just didn't come out right,
Expressing difficulty in articulating thoughts.
And you were so afraid
Describing partner's fear of infidelity.
That I'd found someone new
Assuring the partner that there's no need for worry.
But darlin', well, there's no need
Using a term of endearment, reassuring the partner.
For what we're goin' through
Emphasizing the unnecessary nature of their current struggle.
Because you and I've been in love too long
Highlighting the duration of their love.
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Emphasizing the present over future concerns.
Here's a place where we both belong
Asserting a shared sense of belonging.
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
Affirming the partner as the sole object of desire.
You're the only woman that I really love
Reiterating deep love for the partner.
Baby, see what a foolish heart has done for me
Reflecting on the consequences of emotional vulnerability.
Darlin', why yeah would you break my heart and make me cry?
Questioning the partner's actions that caused heartbreak.
Well now, you can't go back and change the way things are,
Accepting the inability to change the past.
And all this foolish talk won't take us very far
Dismissing the futility of negative talk.
And so I hope you're listening' 'cause I'm tellin' you
Expressing a desire for the partner to listen and understand.
About the, the way I feel and what I'm goin' through
Sharing emotional struggles and experiences.
Because you and I've been in love too long
Repeating the enduring nature of their love.
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Reiterating the insignificance of future worries.
Here's a place where we both belong
Affirming a shared place of belonging.
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
Confirming the exclusivity of the partner's place in dreams.
You're the only woman that I really love
Affirming deep, exclusive love for the partner.
When the pain of love surrounds you
Describing the challenges of love.
And the world may be unkind
Acknowledging a potentially harsh world.
I'll put my lovin' arms around you
Offering comfort and protection in difficult times.
Take you far from this place and time
Expressing a desire to escape with the partner.
Because you and I've been in love too long
Reiterating the enduring nature of their love.
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Stressing the insignificance of future concerns.
Here's a place where we both belong
Reaffirming a shared place of belonging.
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
Confirming the exclusivity of the partner in dreams.
You're the only woman that I really love
Reaffirming deep, exclusive love for the partner.
You're the only woman You're the only woman
Repeating the partner's exclusive role.
I know you're the only woman
Reaffirming the partner's exclusivity.
You're the only woman
Repeating the partner's unique importance.
Well now you're the only woman
Emphasizing the partner's sole significance.
You're the only woman
Reiterating the partner's exclusive role.
