Just the kind of lady to really set you sailing 
On emotion's ocean 
Just like a river she's rolling on forever 
Got you running around now you've found 
She turns the tide of your tired heart 
Back to the place where you made a start 
She's got the power to burn you up 
But she's turning, turning your golden heart 

Lady, lady of delight 
Lady, lady of the night 

Don't stand in the gutter boy, mumble and mutter 
That the world ain't treating you right 
I'm talking to you - I can prove it too - 
You'd better listen to me - I've got a guarantee 
Now who told you life was meant to be 
Happiness, Light, Love and Free 
What made you think you had a right? 
You're just a frightened child in the middle of the night 

Lady, lady of delight 
Lady, lady of the night 

Wild dogs baying at the moon 
Alley cats singing out of tune 
Hoot of owls across the lake - 
These are sounds that follow her wake 

Don't think you can change her - 
I know she'll rearrange you 
You might disagree but just you wait and see 
You think you're winning but look at the state you're in 
Danger - stranger: 
Some call her goddess some call her a whore 
But she's a sister - a lover - a mother and more 
She keeps on coming - she makes it clear 
That if you let her in you've got nothing to fear 

Lady, lady of delight 
Lady, lady of the night
