Lyrics The Turtles

The Turtles

Lady-O

Verse 1:

While you sit and seek a crescent moon is laying

At your feet

With hope that's made of sand

It don't think you can

But you have held it all in your hands

Verse 2 (strings enter):

I've been trying hard to keep from needing you

But from the start

My heart just rolled and flowed

I've seen where it goes

Still somehow my love for you grows, Lady-o

So on my heels I'll grow wings

Gonna ride silver strings

But I'll see you in my holiest dreams, Lady-o

(instrumental break w/piano and strings over verse 2

(repeat chorus)

(repeat verse 2)
