Lady Came From the South Lyrics

Lady Came from the South
Starry Eyed and Laughing, 1974***
Starry Eyed and Laughing
The lady came from the south
Ah how was I to know?
Walking all alone
Ah nowhere else to go
She took me by surprise
It was her eyes
I loved her for a while
It was her smile
She said I'm so tired of being alone
Learning new ways to cry
And I'm no higher and no freer than most
On a path to the sea

The way she looked at me
I felt so free
Hiding something away
Deeper than I could see
