"The Lady I Am" lyrics
"The Lady I Am"
I'm not a lady who loves too easy
I'm a lady who loves too strong
I'm a lady who'll be waitin' at your window
And I don't mind waitin' all night long
I'm a lady who's lovin' so easy
Such a sweet piano man
I wanna hold you tonight, but I'll do alright
If you'll play the next one for the lady I am
I'm not a lady who takes lovin' lightly
I'm not one of those who goes movin' around
I'm a lady who'd be havin' you nightly
I'm a walkin' woman who's been uptown
And Lord knows, I got the time, babe
For such a sweet piano man
But I can wait for the rest, if you give me your best
When you play the next one for the lady I am
Now, when I leave this town tomorrow (leave this town)
When I leave this bar at dawn (leave this bar)
I'm gonna leave a little bit of me behind for you, baby
Just enough to keep you up all night long
And you tell me it ain't easy to handle
Such a hard piano man
But I could do ya uptight, so put it to me right
When you play the next one for the lady I am
Oh... such a sweet piano man
I could do ya uptight, so put it to me right
When you play the next one for the lady I am
Oh, oh, oh... I'm gonna keep you up all night long
Play the next one for the lady I am

The Carpenters - "Rainy Days And Mondays" Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothing ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothing to do but frown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down
What I've got they used to...
Sylvia - "Sweet Yesterday" A room full of memories
I still feel your touch
Everywhere I turn I see you
Pictures on my dresser
Reminders of us
Time goes by
But I still love you
Sweet yesterday
Feelings that tomorrow cannot...
Dionne Warwick - "Let Me Go To Him" He needs me more than you do
And I know that he loves me
You never have
To you I am only a play thing
Just a toy that you found
You just keep around
Let me go to him
Let me be the woman I can be
If...
Bread - "Diary" I found her diary underneath a tree
And started reading about me
The words she'd written took me by surprise
You'd never read them in her eyes
They said that she had found
the love she'd waited for...
