lyrics

(Verse 1)
They were talkin about my lady
Mesmerized by the way that she moves
They say, “but that girl she don’t go nowhere
without her back pocket full of blues.”

She knows sometimes these times are hard
They’re harder than a stone
She says, “I’m just gonna go on and take what is mine
until I can find a home.”

(Chorus)
Lovely, oh lovely lady
won’t you stay with me tonight?
When everything I’m doing feels like it's so wrong,
you make me feel alright.

(Verse 2)
She spends sleepless days and nights
wishing that she could feel warmth
She says, “Every time I find a little shelter,
in moves the next winter storm.

It seems like an endless charade of broken hearts,
salted wounds and unfulfilled dreams–
I’m silenced by a stream of bitter tear drops;
Why can’t things ever be more than they seem?”

(Verse 3)
So I say–– I even pray –
that she finds some rest within her soul
Good times they come and then they go,
as the Lord watches it all with open arms.
