One Man's Woman
Secret Passions Unveiled: One Woman's Dual Dance
Lyrics
She's got dinner on the table at seven
She prepares dinner and has it ready by seven.
The kids are tucked in bed by nine-fifteen
Her children are in bed by nine-fifteen.
And she's headed for a hotel at eleven
At eleven, she's going to a hotel to meet a man her family doesn't know.
To meet a man her family's never seen.
She's having an affair.
As the elevator takes her to her lover
She reflects as the elevator takes her to her lover.
She thinks about his wife at home asleep
She thinks about her lover's wife sleeping at home.
And she knows it must be painful to discover
She acknowledges the pain the wife might feel upon discovering the affair.
That the man you love's not always yours to keep.
Realization that the man she loves may not be exclusively hers.
Well, she's one man's bride
She's legally married to one man.
And she's one man's on the side
She's involved with another man on the side.
She wonders why it takes two men
Questioning why she needs two men for fulfillment.
To keep her satisfied.
Reflecting on her need for multiple relationships for satisfaction.
She's a hard workin' house-wife
She's a dedicated homemaker.
Right now she's occupied
Currently occupied with her domestic duties.
She's one man's woman
She belongs to one man as his partner.
And one man's on the side
She's involved with another man clandestinely.
Yes, she's one man's woman
Emphasizing her dual role as committed and involved with another.
And one man's on the side.
Reiterating her situation as committed and simultaneously involved.
She thinks about her husband when it's over
She contemplates her husband after the affair.
But she justifies her love affair somehow
She finds ways to justify her extramarital relationship.
She knows it can't go on like this forever
Awareness that the affair cannot continue indefinitely.
But she takes it all from day to day for now.
She's managing the situation day by day for now.
