Lyrics
Lady, you bring me up when I'm down
And maybe you're gonna change my life around
You came to me when I was lonely and no one cared
You made me see that I was only just runnin' scared
I saw your face and something told me you were the one
You smiled at me, and now I see my life's begun
Lady (pretty lady)
You brought me in from out the rain (yeah0
Maybe my life will never be the same
Once I was filled with desperation
A solitary man
You gave me hope and inspiration like only true love can
Now I believe in what you're saying
I'm ten feet tall
This love don't need no explaining
We've got it all
Lady, you bring me up when I'm down (up when I'm down)
Maybe (maybe) you're gonna change my life around
Oh, lady, you bring me up when I'm down (up when I'm down)
Maybe (yeah), you're gonna change my life around
Yeah, yeah, yeah (ooh)
Lady
Lady, you bring me up when I'm down
Maybe you're gonna change my life around
Ooh, lady
Lady, you bring me up when I'm down
Maybe-
