Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me

Did you think our time together was all gone

Lady, you've been dreaming, I'm as close as I can be

And 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 that you could know how much I love you

Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way I do

Are there meanings that you've never seen before

Lady, my sweet lady, I just can't believe it's true

And it's like I've never, ever loved before

(Chorus) Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me

Did you think our time together was all gone

Lady, my sweet lady, I'm as close as I can be

And I swear to you our time has just begun
