There's a love that I dream of at night
When I'm home
by the fireside of thought
After her all the rest don't seem right
You should feel
all the goodness she brought
If you're wondering
just to who she could be
Well I promise I not say her name
If you settled down here
alongside beach I will tell you
Cause I'm not ashamed
She's my lady from south of Detroit
And when that quite a few years ago
I remember her beauty,
her taste and her charms
Oh, how could I forget
holding her in my arms
My lady from south of Detroit
And even though sometimes she's bad
I'm so sorry she's gone
Cause my memory lives on
She's the best lover I've ever had
She's my lady from south of Detroit
And we met quite a few years ago
I remember her beauty,
her taste and her charms
Oh, how could I forget
holding her in my arms
My lady from south of Detroit
And even though sometimes she's bad
I'm so sorry she's gone
Cause my memory lives on
She's the best lover I've ever had
