"Ladies Get Lonesome Too" Lyrics

(Peggy Forman)

In your eyes I can see you really don't
Believe it's you I'm holdin' in my arms
'Cause I've known you all your life
You've never been the kind of woman to do wrong.

And I know you haven't changed
And I know you still wear his name
And you're still the lady that I always knew
But you look so sad and lonely
Just close your eyes and hold me
Ladies get lonesome too.

I know you're a good woman
And you try to be a good wife
But I also know that you've had to spend
Too much time alone
And all that life has held you
Is faded dreams and songs sung blue
And a love that can't go right for goin' wrong.

You've still got your pride
But baby pride can't hold you
Or keep you warm
The way that I can do.

You've always been a lady
But tonight be just my baby
'Cause ladies get lonesome too
You've always been a lady
But tonight just lay back and be my baby
Cause ladies get lonesome too...
