The Lady In My Life
Ne-Yo · Other Songs - Ne-Yo
No darkness tonight
Lady our love
Will shine
Just put
Your trust in my heart
And meet me
In paradise, girl
You're every wonder
In this world to me
A treasure time
Won't steal away
Chorus:
So listen to my heart
Lay your body
Close to mine
Let me fill you
With my dreams
I can make you
Feel alright
And baby
Through the years
Gonna love you
More each day
So i promise you tonight
That you'll always be
The lady in my life
Lay back
In my tenderness
Let's make this
A night we won't forget
Girl
I need your sweet caress
Reach out to a fantasy
Two hearts
In the beat of ecstasy
Come to me, girl
(Chorus)
And i will
Keep you warm
Through the shadows
Of the night
Let me touch you
With my love
I can make you
Feel so right
And baby
Through the years
Even when
We're old and gray
I will love you
More each day
'Cause you
Will always be
The lady in my life
Stay with me
I want you
To stay with me
The Lady In My Life
