A Woman's Needs
A Woman's Quest for Love and Freedom
Lyrics
Where have you been are you still on my side
Expressing concern about the partner's absence and questioning their loyalty.
Is that love or regret that I see in your eyes
Wondering if the emotions in the partner's eyes signify love or remorse.
How many years have we played out this game
Reflecting on the duration of playing a repetitive relationship game.
Every time we come close the answer's always the same
Noticing that every time they get close, the outcome remains unchanged.
I guess some souls get restless under the skin
Suggesting internal restlessness in some souls.
There's a shortage by half of marrying men
Highlighting a shortage of eligible men for marriage.
You know that I love you but I love to be free
Expressing love but also a desire for freedom.
So tell me what do you want, yeah from a gypsy like me
Asking the partner to clarify expectations from a free-spirited person.
I need a ring on my finger, champagne on ice
Expressing a desire for commitment with a ring, luxury, and the best aspects of life.
One man to show me the best part of life
Yearning for a special person to share life's pleasures.
Is that what you want
Prompting the partner to confirm if commitment is what they want.
Yeah, that's what I need
Affirming that commitment is what the speaker needs.
A home and a family makes sense for us
Highlighting the importance of a home and family based on trust.
A solid foundation built out of trust
Emphasizing the need for a solid foundation in a relationship.
Do you think you can find that with someone like me
Questioning if the partner believes such a foundation is possible with the speaker.
Two arms to hold you, one place to be
Listing comforting elements like two arms to hold and a place to be.
Are just some of the things that a woman needs
Stating these elements as essential needs for a woman.
I've been shortchanged and cheated so many times
Expressing past disappointments and feeling deprived.
But you're all that I've wanted For all of my life
Acknowledging the partner as the desired one throughout life.
I've searched for the reasons, known how I've felt
Reflecting on personal struggles and emotional conflicts.
But what can I give you when I can't trust myself
Acknowledging a difficulty in offering trust due to personal struggles.
