She's My Rock
Embracing Her Imperfections: She's My Rock
Lyrics
Well, you tell me how she was when you once knew her
Asking about the past and how the woman was in previous relationships.
How she played her games with many, many men
Referring to her history of playing games with multiple men.
And you tell me that you don't think I'd be with her
Expressing doubt that the speaker would be with her if he knew about her past.
If I could just have known her back then
Wishing for knowledge of her past before being in a relationship.
Lord, you ask me why I don't pack up and leave her
Responding to the suggestion of leaving her despite knowing her flaws.
Now that I know about her wicked ways
Acknowledging awareness of her negative qualities now.
Well, I doubt that you could understand my thinking
Speculating that the listener may not understand the speaker's perspective.
Oh, but listen close to what I have to say
Inviting the listener to pay close attention to the speaker's explanation.
She's the rock that I lean on
Describing the woman as a reliable support in the speaker's life.
She's the sunshine of my day
Highlighting the positive impact she has on the speaker's daily life.
And I don't care what you say about her
Asserting indifference to others' opinions about her.
Lord, she took me in and made me everything I am today
Crediting her for transforming the speaker into who he is today.
She's my rock and I ain't a-gonna throw her away
Reaffirming her importance as a constant and stable presence.
I know she wasn't always what she is now
Acknowledging her past mistakes and personal growth.
Lord, she had to make mistakes like everybody else
Recognizing that everyone makes mistakes, including the woman.
And don't you point your finger at nobody
Rejecting judgment from others and emphasizing self-awareness.
It's plain to see that you ain't no saint yourself
Pointing out the listener's imperfections and lack of moral high ground.
She's the rock that I lean on
Reiterating the woman's role as a pillar of support in the speaker's life.
She's the sunshine of my day
Emphasizing her positive influence as a source of happiness.
And I don't care what you say about her
Restating the speaker's indifference to others' opinions about her.
Lord, she took me in and made me everything I am today
Acknowledging her transformative impact on the speaker's identity.
She's my rock and I ain't a-gonna throw her away
Affirming her enduring significance in the speaker's life.
Yes, she's my rock and I ain't gonna throw her away
Repeating the speaker's commitment to keep the woman in his life.
Yes, she's my rock and I ain't gonna throw her away
Emphasizing the woman's irreplaceable role in the speaker's life.
