Darrell Scott - All the Lovely Ladies lyrics
[Darrell Scott - All the Lovely Ladies lyrics]
I wish that I could know them one by one
All the handsome gentlemen with
Loving on their minds
Strolling in to take the ladies home
Bless you all and keep you
On the road to tenderness
Heaven can be yours just for now
All the gentle strangers who by
Nature do not smile
To everyone who cannot hold a pen
To all you heavy rounders with
A headache for your pains
Who dread the thought of going round the bend
Bless you all and keep you on
The road to better things
Heaven can be yours just for now
To all the lovely ladies
In their finery tonight
I wish that I could kiss you while you knit
To all the ones who learn
To live with bein second-guessed
Whose job it is to give more then to get
Bless you all and keep you
With the strength to understand
Heaven can be yours just for now
To all the little dreamers with
A dream that cannot last
To all the sleeping giants who must wake
To every man who answers to
The letter of the law
And all the rest imprisoned by mistake
Bless you all and keep you with
The faith to let it pass
Heaven can be yours just for now
To all the lonely sailors who
Have trouble beeing seen
To all of you with heartache that remains
Maybe sometime later you might
Swim back into shore
If someone could relieve you of your chains
Bless you all and keep you all on
The land or on the sea
Heaven can be yours, just for now
