Your Woman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 being 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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Well, I guess what they say is true
I could never spend my life with a man like 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

What did White Town say about "Your Woman"?
When you love somebody, it’s not logical, it’s not rational, and you think ‘This is ridiculous, I can never be with you, I can never be the person you need, why am I even feeling these feelings?’ So, I was trying to write from all these different sides… I wanted people to go ‘this is catchy’ and sin...
What did Jyoti Mishra say about the sample?
IT’S NOT STAR WARS!!! In the ‘90s, I bought the CD soundtrack for Dennis Potter’s 'Pennies From Heaven’ and on it was an amazing 1932 song called ‘My Woman,’ by Lew Stone And The Monseigneur Band, vocal by Al Bowlly. (This itself was a cover of the original by none other than Bing Crosby!) And that...
