Intro: |  |  |  |  | 

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.


Chorus:
                     
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.

Bridge:
                            
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.


Chorus:
                      
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.
