John Hiatt - The Lady of The Night слова песни
Oh the moon hangs downLike some old evening gownForgotten by some lovely southern maidenOh the stars are her tearsAnd the sky a skin of yearsThat she has most graciously givenNow who am iTo think that she might bat an eyeAt my heart that lay so dangerously openneath the sweet magnolia treeThe worlds a fragrant memoryAnd the lady of the night has finally spokenChorus:She cries, oh, you are a leaf that the wind blowsAnd you drift from place to place and you never knowWell is it here that I will stay? Child, you must be on your wayFor you are now, but you know nothing of your sorrowSo I hover in the breathBetween the birthday and the deathAnd the hummingbird, he hovers ore the flowerThough the end is just a guestFrom one moment to the nextI keep thinking there will be a final hourShe cries, oh, you are a leaf that the wind blowsAnd you drift from place to place and you never knowWell is it here that I will stay? Child, you must be on your wayFor you are now, but you know nothing of tomorrowShe cries, oh, you are a leaf that the wind blowsAnd you drift from place to place and you never knowWell is it here that I will stay? Child, you must be on your way
