I’m very late to the thread & haven’t read it all yet, so, probably already mentioned:

“Troglodyte”, by the Jimmy Castor Bunch

(Assuming “woman” doesn’t actually have to be in the title.)

and...

Every 3rd non-religious song ever written?

Now, just so readers don't think I'M a troglodyte, my favorite songs about a woman (if the word "woman" doesn't have to actually be in the song) would be, #2 (I think), "Babe", by Styx (I hope my wife reads this!), and, for sure #1, Firefly, by Uriah Heep (Ken Hensley):

My love lives at the end of a rainbow One day, I'm gonna fly there on a firefly High above white angry water With a love song in my heart

Someday, somehow, I know I'm gonna get there I've been patient for so long All my day dreams seem so much nearer now And I beg you hear my song

Firefly, on your glowing wings I'll ride Till, I sit beside this dream of mine Firefly, high on a risin' tide Only wanna touch the things, I've seen

Steppin' lightly from star to star Cross a wilderness of blue Wonderin' how much in love with me you are 'Cause, I'm so much in love with you

Firefly, on your glowing wings I'll ride Till, I sit beside this dream of mine Firefly, high on a risin' tide Only wanna touch the things, I've seen

(bridge)

Firefly, can you take me I ain't had no lovin' lately Firefly, bring me love

To my new horizon The one that I've still got my eyes on My, my, firefly, firefly, firefly, firefly

(instrumental)

To my new horizon The one that I've still got my eyes on My my firefly, firefly, firefly, firefly, firefly, firefly

(bridge)

In my dreams you come to me The answer to my prayer As I begin to feel, you warm my heart I awake and you're not there (Bridge)

Now and then, I see your eyes As the stars begin to shine No rain to cool my passion No, not now, no, now you're mine
