| It’s her first night on the town since she was just eighteen
|
| A lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
|
| The ties that once bound her now are broke away
|
| And she’s like a baby, just learning how to play
|
| She never thought that love could ever end so soon
|
| Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
|
| When he asked her to marry and she gladly said okay
|
| 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
|
| Well, I know a lady that’s down on her love
|
| 'Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
|
| But work took me a way from home late at nights
|
| 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 |
