Ladyfriend

I have to see her

I have to see her

I have to see her

I have to see your ladyfriend

I have to see her

I have to see her

I have to see her

I have to see your ladyfriend



I hate to wake you but I hope you understand

How the nights drag on out in these vacant lots and wastelands

I didn't come to ask for handouts, I don't need anything to eat

But I used to know your ladyfriend, she once belonged to me

And I have to see her



CHORUS:

(I have to see her)

Has she changed at all?

(I have to see her)

My body's failing me

(I have to see her)

I feel so frail and small

(I have to see your ladyfriend)

I just have to see her

(I have to see her)

Just on last time

(I have to see her)

Just one last time before I die

(I have to see her)

(I have to see your ladyfriend)



You can put away your dollars; you can put away your dimes

Well I might have lost my bearings but I haven't lost my pride

But I finally lost her photo so before my memory fades

I want to write her face across my mind then quietly go away

I just have to see her



CHORUS



Do you help her zip her dress up? Does she straighten up your tie?

Do you spiral down the ages when you stare into her eyes?

No, me and her and marriage never could agree

But you can't bottle up the ocean it just keeps on breaking free

And I have to see her



CHORUS
