Your Woman
Unveiling Love's Deception: Holly Tatnall's Your Woman
Lyrics
Just tell me what you've got to say to me
Asking for honesty and directness in communication.
I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth
Expressing impatience for the truth after a long wait.
It comes as no surprise at all you see
Expressing that the truth is not surprising.
So cut the crap and tell me that we're through
Requesting a straightforward declaration of the end of the relationship.
Now I know your heart, I know your mind
Claiming knowledge of the partner's heart and mind.
You don't even know you're bein' unkind
Observing the partner's unkind behavior, possibly unaware to them.
So much for all your highbrow Marxist ways
Criticizing the partner's intellectual and political pretensions.
Just use me up and then you walk away
Accusing the partner of using and abandoning without genuine care.
Boy, you can't play me that way
Rejecting manipulation and asserting independence.
Well I guess what you say is true
Accepting the truth about being unsuitable for the partner.
I could never be the right kind of girl for you
Acknowledging the incompatibility with the partner.
I could never be your woman
Emphasizing the inability to be the partner's woman.
I could never be your woman
Reiterating the refusal to be the partner's woman.
When I saw my best friend yesterday
Recalling a conversation with a friend about the partner.
She said she never liked you from the start
Friend expressing dislike for the partner from the beginning.
Well me, I wish that I could claim the same
Expressing a wish to share the friend's negative opinion.
But you always knew you held my heart
Acknowledging that the partner has always had the speaker's heart.
And you're such a charming, handsome man
Complimenting the partner's charm and looks.
Now I think I finally understand
Claiming understanding of the partner's nature.
Is it in your genes
Pondering if certain traits are inherited.
I don't know
Expressing uncertainty about the partner's characteristics.
But I'll soon find out, that's for sure
Expressing determination to find out the truth.
Why did you play me this way
Questioning the reasons behind the partner's deceitful actions.
Well I guess what they say is true
Accepting the truth about not being able to spend a lifetime with the partner.
I could never spend my life with a man like you
Rejecting the idea of a long-term commitment with the partner.
I could never be your woman
Repeating the refusal to be the partner's woman.
I could never be your woman
Reiterating the rejection of being the partner's woman.
I could never be your woman
Emphasizing once again the refusal to be the partner's woman.
I could never be your woman
Final statement, refusing to be the partner's woman.
