She's a Lady

Are you trying to put me on ? I turned around and it was gone

Did I leave it in your car ? On a table in a bar ?

Or in your bed between the sheets ? The places where we used to meet

Wherever love has gone I need to know

´Cos she´s a woman, oh yeah she´s a woman, she´s a lady

And I just love the way she moves, the way she moves, watch her

When you left I didn´t know how I was going to forget you

I was hanging by a thread and then I met her

Selling pictures of herself to German business men

Well that´s all she wants to do

Come on, come on, I don´t want to try too hard, I don´t want to wait too long

I don´t want to live alone with all this crap that pulls me down

Oh tell me now, how would it feel if I could touch you once again

Where have you gone ? Where have you gone ?

The moon has gone down on the sun

I know that you´re coming home, you wouldn´t leave me on my own

Everybody, can´t you see, she´s coming back to me

Whilst you were gone I got along

I didn´t die, I carried on

And I went drinking every night just so I could feel alright

Stayed in bed all day to feel O.K., I felt O.K.

Oh I felt sick and tired, yes I did, she lived at her father´s place

Played his records though they jumped, wore her body back to front

I tried hard to make it work, kissed where she said it hurt

But I was always underneath. She´s a woman…etc.

I don´t know why you pretend that it causes you pain

When you know very well you´re going to do it again

You´re going to do it again and again and again

But can you keep it going all nite long ?

I know it´s going to happen

It might not be today, it might not be tomorrow

Or even the day after but some time soon, you´ll see

You´re going to come back to me. Whilst you were gone…etc.

Whilst you were gone I got along

I didn´t die, I carried on

Oh yeah I went with other women, what else can I say ?

I guess I kind of missed you whilst you were away, whilst you were gone (stop)
