*Capo 1

Vs.1

It's her first night on the town, since she was just 18.

A lady down on love, and out of hopes and dreams.

The ties that once bound her, now are broke away away.

And she's just like a baby, learning how to play.

Vs.2

She never thought that love, could ever end so soon.

Her mind drifts back in time, to a mid-summer moon.

When he ask her to marry, and she gladly said OK.

And a woman came to be, from the girl of yesterday.

Now she's a lady, down on love.

She needs somebody, to gently pick her up.

She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound.

To a man who would love her, and never let her down.

*No Capo

*You can change the key other ways, this is just easiest for me.

Well I know the lady, that's down on her love.

Cause I used to hold her, and have that special touch.

But work took me away, from home late at night.

And I wasn't there, when she turned out the lights.

Then both of us got lonely, and I gave into lust.

And she just couldn't live, with a man she couldn't trust.

Now she's a lady, down on love.

She needs somebody, to gently pick her up.

She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound.

To a man who would love her, and never let her down.

Now she's a lady.... Down on love.
