John Oates - In Honor Of A Lady lyrics

rate me

I carried my thoughts for quite a time

It's so hard for me to keep them

And if I put them down into this book

It might be easier to sleep then

And there's a lot of tunes that'll never be sung

Because the faith and rules and changes

And now I'm singing one last song

In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her

A woo, and I'm thinking about her

Well, Caroline came and then she went

We just couldn't get together

And then I tried a lot of different scenes

I couldn't find anything better

All my troubles made me think of a time

When I had a woman named Pauline

And now I'm singing one last song

In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her

A woo, and I'm thinking about her

Right fine habits and a smiley face

Don't always make a lady

You can pull it all out of a makeup case

While your man's in the parlor waiting

I believe I found the perfect girl

But I didn't have the sense to keep her

And now I'm singing one last song

In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her

A woo, I'm thinking about her, I'm thinking about her
