Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, youve been dreaming, Im as close as I can be I swear to you our time has just begun Close your eyes and rest your weary mind I promise I will stay right here beside you Today our lives were joined, became entwined I wish you could know how much I love you Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way I do Are there meanings that youve never seen before Lady, my sweet lady, I just cant believe its true And its like Ive never ever loved before Close your eyes and rest your weary mind I promise I will stay right here beside you Today our lives were joined, became entwined I wish you could know how much I love you Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, my sweet lady, Im as close as I can be I swear to you our time has just begun Words and music by john denver
