Your Woman Lyrics

Artist: White Town

Just tell me what you've got to say to me
I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth
It comes as no surprise at all you see
So cut the crap and tell me that we're through

Now I know your heart, I know your mind
You don't even know you're bein' unkind
So much for all your highbrow Marxist ways
Just use me up and then you walk away
Boy, you can't play me that way

Well I guess what you say is true
I could never be the right kind of girl for you

CHORUS:

I could never be your woman
I could never be your woman
I could never be your woman
I could never be your woman

When I saw my best friend yesterday
She said she never liked you from the start
Well me, I wish that I could claim the same
But you always knew you held my heart

And you're such a charming, handsome man
Now I think I finally understand
Is it in your genes? I don't know
But I'll soon find out, that's for sure
Why did you play me this way

Well I guess what you say is true
I could never be the right kind of girl for you

(CHORUS)

Well I guess what they say is true
I could never spend my life with a man like you

(CHORUS)

by Tami Wami on 7/9/2008 7:57am Hey guys, I don't understand, is he a gay guy, or singing as if he was a woman?
by Ian on 7/15/2008 12:09am This song is about a crushed gay guy who is finally facing the fact that it won't work out with him and his straight boyfriend. How sad... ;(
by Charlie on 7/15/2008 1:36am he received this as a letter from his ex, turned it into a song. Makes much more sense in that context.

by amo on 9/24/2008 6:58pm Actually its about a few things, if you want a full explanation its on White Town's website. Its not a single message, unless it were "The hypocrisy that results when love and lust get mixed up with highbrow ideals"(as quoted from the site). Hope that clears some stuff up for you all.

by Paul on 10/16/2008 5:13pm I love this song, I really do. It's kinda sad when you realized that you can't have anything with the person you love. That happened to me. :)

by agnes on 11/27/2008 11:49pm def like this song.. my new fav :)
by jacon on 11/29/2008 4:59pm is this a gay song?
by Keni on 12/2/2008 11:18pm I remember this song from when I was in high school. Ah, memories... it's different, but I like it.
by Choo (Singapore) on 12/7/2008 9:48am The whole song was sang in the lesbian gf viewpoint, EXCEPT "Well I guess what you say is true,I could never be the right kind of girl for you I could never be your woman", which is the songwriter's words. The writer is so smart..
by c0ma on 12/16/2008 9:46pm this is the best
by Flordc (Argentina) on 1/3/2009 6:43pm well, i guess that`s an incredible song, i really love it! i`m gonna recordered it with my voice, i really like it.

by Sebast1 on 1/12/2009 12:24pm Still excellent song ! :D
by Serendipity on 1/15/2009 4:50am Reminds me of the first time i heard this song, i was six and totally hooked to the tune! I have ben trying to figure out the name of the song for years!
by WAYGIE on 1/19/2009 8:08am it's awsome that a guy sings it
by Cirux on 1/26/2009 12:55pm Excelente canción!!!!!!!!!
by Yasha(Azerbaijan) on 1/29/2009 2:22am the best song i've ever heard
by splodey on 2/17/2009 6:40am great song to get over a break up. <3
by Jolie on 2/18/2009 10:22am To all of you that think a woman sings it and that it's a gay song--it's a MAN singing. It's called role-reversal. Serendipity -- That's EXACTLY my situation too! I'm ecstatic that I actually found it!
by vongrim on 2/23/2009 4:38pm Great song, I don't see it as a gay or lesbian song, even though it could be, I see it as a straight womans perspective of being messed around by a manwhore! the songs put it into right words about the end of that whole kind of mess.
by Rilli on 3/2/2009 2:37pm Actually, I heard a talk show on the radio once about a man reading a break-up letter from his girlfriend. I suppose you can take it however you want, of course - that's the beauty of music - but that's what I was told. It's always been once of my favorites, all the same.
by Joy on 3/25/2009 8:41pm Seriously sweet song
by Courtney on 3/26/2009 1:08pm Ughness sometimes this song is so perfect it makes me sick
by Paul on 4/14/2009 10:49am the man's not gay... just listen to the song.. he's a former commie who's singing abt communism. In an interview he said that the song was also influenced by the fact that the first girl he ever fell in love with turned out to be lesbian!! The poor guy deserved a hit
by thanos on 4/15/2009 5:36am it's nice! but isn't it for girls?
by VVV on 4/16/2009 12:56pm Excellent! I love it!
by laurentiu on 4/30/2009 6:00pm excelent song !
by andriavia1968 on 7/15/2009 9:10am i rushed out and ordered it immediately...well my husband did!!! every time i play it i dance around and clean the house and enjoy doing it!!! lol what a kewl song!!! love it love it love it
by CaliStaysHigh on 7/23/2009 2:08am his first love turned out to be a lesbian. I can relate..alll badddd aha
by chewy on 8/31/2009 1:58am Feelings are sexeless. so It doest matter your genre, say what you want to say: express yourself: I am not what You want. #$! You even thou I love you! Don't judge just live your life at it fullest. It's a shame I am not what you want, just let pick my pieces and continue... This song rocks !
by CLS on 9/14/2009 10:35am i don't give a shit if this dude is gay. this song is fuckin sweet
by cutie on 9/19/2009 1:12pm not true at all for those that say it's a gay guy!!! its about a guy who falls i love with his female friend but turns out she's a lesbian and so he's just narrating the whole thing!!!
by Caro on 9/26/2009 12:04am It's a great song, I first heard it like 10 or 12 years ago, and I loved it. I've been trying to find out the name of the song since then and today I finally did it!!! I'm so happy!
by charlotte jeffrey on 10/1/2009 5:02am Yep I am trying to end a relationship and the sentiments in this song are spot on.
by Hater on 10/20/2009 12:09am Good Song!! But FAGS GO TO HELL!! fyi
by Fucked your mom on 10/24/2009 4:54am There is no hell, bud. Just a story to try to get unaccountable dipshits to behave. If you're always being watched, you don't get away with shit right? Why not embellish it for a few thousand years and make it a book?
by sheesh on 10/31/2009 7:52am Guy couldn't find a female singer for his song so he sang it himself. Nothing meaningful or political about it.
by Roximillions on 11/2/2009 3:29pm I love this song, it describes one of my most hurtful relationships to a t! His voice RAWKS, and this song is NOT about fags!!!
by $genie on 11/16/2009 5:38am heard it over a decade ago. Had to google part of the lyrics to get it. cant get enough of it. nothing gay about it. looking for the album to dispute the 'one hit wonder' status. i refuse to believe that such genius is only exhibited in one song.
by jupiterXL on 11/29/2009 4:03pm Good song!! So is the singer homosexual or is he playing a real woman's role?
by Classic Song From A Classic Era on 1/8/2010 8:44pm This is not about gay people, not necessarily a gay singer. This is a classic song from the early 1900's that was adapted to a modern 90's tune. Get with it peeps and quit sounding so stupid.
by Eric on 1/27/2010 10:30am LOL, this is NOT about a gay guy who has a straight boyfriend. He is singing the song from the girls point of view.
by RESTRICTED on 2/7/2010 7:01pm this is great works! heard it the other day on the radio and been trying to figure out the name evr since!
by alice on 3/7/2010 9:01pm I was in summer camp and my cabin mates and I made up a skit to this song I was 12 I'm 24 now and I still play it on repeat the album is good. We dressed as boys and by then end we looked liked girls don't know what we were thinkin but it was a hit at the talent show!
by DVS on 4/13/2010 2:05pm Very nice song.
by On girl on 5/4/2010 2:16am On yo girl
by Maono-san on 5/10/2010 4:20am omg! I love this song! It is great!
by Anthony on 6/20/2010 10:03pm It has nothing to do with lesbians. You are missing the part where the song says "boy you can't play me that way... I could never be your woman." It is from the woman's point of view. Then she says, "Is it in your genes? I don't know but I'll soon find out." I think it means he's been shitty to her so she's leaving him for his brother.
by Laura on 7/9/2010 8:13pm If you like this song, listen to Tommy Trash's remix of it... INCREDIBLE!
by comingback4more on 7/10/2010 4:13pm - I finally understood sb, who said, that they've looked for this song for years. And this is the song which turns me on, even when i'm sad. No matter that my boyfriend is in England and he's far away - this song no matter if i'm not in the mood - just can't stop playing and playing again. That's awesome.
