Discover the story of the song > Woman Like Me – Adele

In these lyrics, the protagonist is explaining to her partner that he doesn't realize how good she is for him. She's telling him that she wants to be with him, but not if he continues to drive her away. She knows that he's been hurt before, which is why he's insecure, but she wants to be the one to heal him. However, she realizes that if he doesn't choose to change and grow, they will never know how good their relationship could be. She tells him that complacency is the worst trait to have and that consistency is important to keep a woman like her. She ends by saying that a man like him could be so lazy, and giving consistency is the key to keeping a woman like her.
