Lyrics & Music by:  Ian McLeish
 

1.
I once had a lover - she caught me in her spell -
She took my heart and she held it -
And like a fool I fell
Away...

2.
Her words were soft and amber - like misty candlelight -
And I was lost within her -
Her laughter soothed my nights
Away...

Bridge 1.
Do you know what I mean when I say
Once again you took me by surprise?
I pushed you too far and you walked away -
But you're here in my heart for all time.

Bridge 2.
Do you know what I mean when I say
You're the one who made my verses rhyme?
You're the song in my soul, my passion - my goal -
And yuo're here in my heart for all time.

3.
So lady, turn on your radio - and listen to my song -
My invitation's open -
Would you like to sing along?
Today?
