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