Well my head is on your pillow,
but sleep won't close my eyes
I can't really say what's on my mind
for you have loved me like the sun
and I ain't blaming anyone
can't believe it's you I'm with tonight
lady tonight
and I've stood your open highways
with my guitar in my hand
turned my old blue collar to the snow
and it did not seem to matter much,
you were a thousand miles away
you were just another thousand left to go
Oh! Lady, take me down
you know I'm a man on fire
Oh! Lady take me down, down, down
Yes I will take, you higher,
yes I will take, you higher
This old world keeps turning on,
sometimes it turns on me
and there ain't knowbody ever gonna say it isn't so
and no matter where I'm going to,
no matter where I've been
it's only you I want to be with
I want to know
so give me time to know you,
like I used to know before
get right back to where we once belonged
it's not that I can't get to you
God knows it's all I want to do
just can't help the crazy way I am
Oh! Lady, take me down
you know I'm a man on fire
Oh! Lady take me down, down, down
Yes I will take, you higher,
I will take, you higher
oh yes I will
