Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon
Embracing Womanhood: A Love That Defies Judgment
Lyrics
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Expressing the anticipation of the girl transitioning into womanhood.
I love you so much, can't count all the ways
Conveying intense love with an inability to quantify it.
I've died for you girl and all they can say is
Claiming a willingness to sacrifice for the girl.
""He's not your kind""
Reflecting disapproval from others about the relationship.
They never get tired of putting me down
Describing persistent criticism from others.
And I'll never know when I come around
Expressing uncertainty about the consequences when returning.
What I'm gonna find
Uncertainty about what will be encountered upon return.
Don't let them make up your mind
Advising against letting external opinions influence her decisions.
Don't you know, girl, you'll be a woman soon
Reiterating the forthcoming transition into womanhood.
Please, come take my hand
Requesting the girl's companionship or support.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Repeating the anticipation of the girl becoming a woman.
Soon, you'll need a man
Indicating that, eventually, she'll require a man in her life.
I've been misunderstood for all of my life
Expressing a history of being misunderstood.
But what they're saying girl it cuts like a knife
Highlighting the emotional pain caused by rumors or criticism.
""The boy's no good""
Quoting negative opinions about the protagonist.
Well, I've finally found what I'm a-looking for
Asserting that the protagonist has found what he was searching for.
But if they get their chance they'll end it for sure
Warning of potential interference that could end the newfound happiness.
Surely would
Expressing a strong likelihood of interference.
Baby, I've done all I could
Conveying a sense of having done one's best in the given circumstances.
Now it's up to you girl, you'll be a woman soon
Placing the responsibility on the girl to make decisions about the future.
Please, come take my hand
Reiterating the plea for the girl's involvement or support.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Repeating the anticipation of her becoming a woman.
Soon, you'll need a man
Emphasizing the eventual need for a man in her life.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Repeating the anticipation of her transition into womanhood.
Please, come take my hand
Reiterating the plea for the girl's involvement or support.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Repeating the anticipation of her becoming a woman.
Soon but soon, you'll need a man
Adding a sense of urgency to the eventual need for a man in her life.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Repeating the anticipation of her transition into womanhood.
Please, come take my hand
Closing with a plea for the girl's involvement or support.
