It's her first night on the town since she was just 18
F# G#7
A# lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
C# Fm
The ties that once bound her now are broken
F# G#7 C#
And she is like a baby just learning how to play
Fm
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
F# G#7
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
C# Fm
When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k
F# G#7 C#
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
Fm F# C#
Now she's a lady down on love
Fm F# C#
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
A#m Fm F# C#
She's got her freedom but she'd rather be bound
F# G#7 C#
To a man who would love her and never let her down
Fm
Well I know the lady that's down on her love
F# G#7
Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
C# Fm
But work took me away from home late at nights
F# G#7
And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights
C# Fm
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust
F# G#7 C#
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
