Les paroles font référence à la dévotion éternelle de Streisand envers son amant. Peu importe les obstacles auxquels ils sont confrontés, ils seront toujours amoureux les uns des autres. Streisand a ouvertement déclaré qu'elle n'aimait pas "Woman in Love" parce qu'elle ne croyait pas au sens des paroles. "Woman in Love", est pourtant devenu l'une des chansons les plus réussies de la carrière musicale de Streisand. La chanson a été écrite par Barry et Robin Gibb des Bee Gees, qui ont reçu le prix Ivor Novello en 1980.

Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place
I kiss the morning goodbye
Down inside, you know we never know why
The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do

With you eternally mine
In love there is no measure of time
We planned it all at the start
You and I live in each other's heart
We may be oceans away
You'll feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do

I am a woman in love
And I'm talking to you
You know I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It's a right I defend
Over and over again

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
