If You Were A Woman (and I Was A Man)

Bonnie Tyler

Transposer:

If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man... I was a man! verse 1 How’s it feel to be a woman?     How’s it feel to be a man?       Are we really that different?    Tell me where we stand           I look at you you look away Why do you say we’re night and day? I’d like to try another way Oh baby! For just one day If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man verse 2 How’s it feel to be the hunter? How’s it feel to be the prey?    Is there really a reason         For this game we play?           I look at you you look away Why do you say we’re night and day? I’d like to try another way Oh darling! For just one day If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man Instrumental Chorus BRIDGE      Hey! (Hey hey!) We’re just two people trying to love (Trying to love) Oh but how... how can we love? With this wall between us... (Holding us!) Holding us back! If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand? That a heart’s a heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man I was a man!

La chanson aborde les relations entre hommes et femmes en soulignant les différences perçues et en questionnant les stéréotypes de genre. Au cours des paroles, l'auteur s'interroge sur la compréhension mutuelle et l'empathie nécessaire pour aimer, malgré les barrières que la société impose. Elle évoque le désir de vivre une journée dans la peau de l'autre pour mieux appréhender ses émotions et ses expériences. Le contexte de cette chanson se situe dans une époque où les rôles de genre sont souvent figés et stéréotypés. Elle met en lumière une quête universelle de connexion et d'amour, tout en remettant en question les codes qui nous séparent. Finalement, cette œuvre invite à la réflexion sur notre humanité commune, au-delà des différences que nous pouvons croire évidentes.
