| North winds have made my face a little older
|
| And my back is bent through trying too hard
|
| My vest is torn so I make no perfect picture
|
| To place upon your white-washed wall
|
| I’d like to stay but you have not asked me
|
| Still I don’t really expect you to
|
| Dusty boots would shame you now Lady Day
|
| Are we really that far apart
|
| I wish the world could see you now Lady Day
|
| Laughing down at your oldest friend
|
| The one who shared just about all he had
|
| In a one-sided love affair
|
| I get scared when I remember too much
|
| La-la-la-la-la, la-la
|
| La-la-la-la-la-la-la
|
| La-la-la-la-la, la-la
|
| Wasted time I suppose you could say that, heh
|
| Strange it don’t seem that way to me
|
| But wait a minute
|
| I don’t even think you’re listening
|
| Just let me tell you how I really feel
|
| I’ve seen the inside of your heart Lady Day
|
| When you want to be shown the way
|
| I loved you then as I love ya now, girl
|
| La-la-la-la-la, la-la, ooh |
