The Lady In My Life Lyrics

There�ll be no darkness tonight
Lady, our love will shine
(Lighting the light)
Just put your trust in my heart
And meet me in paradise
(Now is the time)
Girl, you�re every wonder in this world to me
A treasure time won�t steal way

So listen to my heart
Lay your body close to mine
Let me fill you with my dreams
I can make you feel all right
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

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
I need you by my side
Don�t you go nowhere
(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)
Let me keep you warm
(You are the lady in my life)
My lady
(Fill you with the sweetest love)
Sweetest love
(Always the lady in my life)
I wanna touch you, babe
(Lay back in my tenderness)
(You are the lady in my life)
(Rock me with your sweet caress)
(Always the lady in my life)
You�re my lady and I love you, girl
(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)
(You are the lady in my life)
Don�t you go nowhere
(Fill you with the sweetest love)
I love you, I love you
(Always the lady in my life)
I need you, I want you, babe
(Lay back in my tenderness)
Stay with me
(You are the lady in my life)
Don�t you go nowhere
(Rock me with your sweet caress)
And I love you, babe
(Always the lady in my life)

Oh, babe
Don�t you go nowhere
You�re my lady
All through the night

(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)
I wanna keep you warm
(You are the lady in my life)
In my life, now
(Fill you with the sweetest love)
Let me fill you, babe
(Always the lady in my life)
i love her,i love her,i love her
(Lay back in my tenderness)
Lay back with me
(You are the lady in my life)
Let me touch you, girl
(Rock me with your sweet caress)
Lay back with me
(Always the lady in my life)
i love her,i love her,i love her
(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)
i love her ,i love her,i love her,i love her,babe
(You are the lady in my life)
(Fill you with the sweetest love)
(Always the lady in my life)
You�re my lady
(Lay back in my tenderness)
You�re my lady, babe
(You are the lady in my life)

This song is so beautiful; i can't believe no one has commented. It reminds me of the song Fantasy by Earth, Wind & Fire at the chorus. I think its just about him telling a woman how much he loves her and could do for her. Aww. =]

Actually, James Ingram wrote the song, but Mike delivered it beautifully.

As far as I know it was written by Rod Temperton.

No matter what it's a great song!

I never really appreciated this song until now. Michaels vocal is so moving. The chorus makes me wanna cry.

I miss you MJ. You're the man!
