Story behind the song
A Woman To Love
I'll admit it, I too am guilty of settling for the "less than perfect" guy/relationship because it was better than being lonely. However, once you come to the realization that you deserve better, there's no going back. No girl will ever be happy being second-best, or left trying to read his mixed signals.
This song is about loving yourself enough to know that you're worth holding out for...you're a woman worth being faithful to, worth falling head over heels in love with, and not settling until you find someone who feels the same.
I wrote this song along with Karleen Watt and a dear friend of mine, Bruce Holloway, who unfortunately passed away in the spring of 2009.
I remember talking about how impossible dating seemed to a woman in her young 20's. So here was this big, body-builder, Austrailain teddy bear who said "Yes, let's write about this...tell me more." And you know me, I more than willingly obliged. Out came this song that is a dating anthem for all women out there...
Thanks for listening, Bruce.
Lyrics
A Woman To Love
(Rachel Williams/Bruce Holloway/Karleen Watt)
I don't wanna be the girl who initiates
"The relationship talk"
And I don't wanna waste my time with your pretty face,
If you're just gonna walk
I don't wanna be your friend with benefits
Or just another number in your phone
I am not an alternative to being alone
But I'll tell you what I am
Chorus:
I'm a woman to want
I'm a woman to need
The kind that you fall for whole-heartedly
The first thing you think of when you wake up
The last heart you'd break because
I'm a woman to love
I'm not a princess, looking for perfection
Expectin some fairy-tale
But I need a man that can understand
That I'm anything but typical
'Cause
I'm a woman to want
I'm a woman to need
The kind that you fall for whole-heartedly
The first thing you think of when you wake up
The last heart you'd break because
I'm a woman to love
Everyone wants to be somebody's everything
And no one should be second best
It's your turn to tell the truth
Tell me, what am I to you?
'Cause we'll never work out unless
Chorus
