| Well my head is on your pillow,
|
| but sleep won’t close my eyes
|
| I can’t really say what’s on my mind
|
| for you have loved me like the sun
|
| and I ain’t blaming anyone
|
| can’t believe it’s you I’m with tonight
|
| lady tonight
|
| and I’ve stood your open highways
|
| with my guitar in my hand
|
| turned my old blue collar to the snow
|
| and it did not seem to matter much,
|
| you were a thousand miles away
|
| you were just another thousand left to go
|
| Oh! |
| Lady, take me down
|
| you know I’m a man on fire
|
| Oh! |
| Lady take me down, down, down
|
| Yes I will take, you higher,
|
| yes I will take, you higher
|
| This old world keeps turning on,
|
| sometimes it turns on me
|
| and there ain’t knowbody ever gonna say it isn’t so
|
| and no matter where I’m going to,
|
| no matter where I’ve been
|
| it’s only you I want to be with
|
| I want to know
|
| so give me time to know you,
|
| like I used to know before
|
| get right back to where we once belonged
|
| it’s not that I can’t get to you
|
| God knows it’s all I want to do
|
| just can’t help the crazy way I am
|
| Oh! |
| Lady, take me down
|
| you know I’m a man on fire
|
| Oh! |
| Lady take me down, down, down
|
| Yes I will take, you higher,
|
| I will take, you higher
|
| oh yes I will |
