Xavier Naidoo - Oh My Lady lyrics

rate me

It was cold, but she was lovely, <br />

I was told, that she would never love me, <br />

But still I hoped the love I felt it could be trusted.<br />

So my case soon came to justice.<br />

I found out they had taken my rights long ago<br />

And what they gave in return wasn't nearly so.<br />

But how could I've known never was I shown, <br />

Little had I grown inside I was torn.<br />

But her life's my concern<br />

I long have ignored the fact that I love you<br />

But I can't anymore - oh my lady.<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

Oh my lady, gone for a year, <br />

She told me maybe once she could stay here with me, <br />

Oh she's alive in my heart, in my mind, in my soul, <br />

There's a glow in my heart in my mind, in my soul.<br />

There's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow, <br />

There's a glow - there's a glow.<br />

<br />

Where my lady are you now.<br />

A love so sacred still not allowed - life is hard.<br />

Sometimes, life can be dreadfull<br />

And this life I guess is more than a handfull.<br />

In this war, we can not use weapons.<br />

And in this war we can only learn lessons.<br />

They had taken unripe fruits from the tree<br />

And I learned my lesson when they gave them to me, <br />

More could I see, clouds under me.<br />

I saw wars upon land I saw wars under sea.<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

Oh my lady, gone for a year, <br />

She told me maybe once she could stay here with me, <br />

Oh she's alive in my heart, in my mind, in my soul, <br />

There's a light in my heart in my mind, in my soul.<br />

There's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow -<br />

There's a glow.
