For My Lady Lyrics
My boat sails stormy seas,
Battles oceans filled with tears.
At last my port's in view
Now that I've discovered you.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
As life goes drifting by
Like a breeze she'll gently sigh
And slowly bow her head
Then you'll hear her softly cry.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Words that you say when we're alone,
Though actions speak louder than words,
But all I can say is I love you so
To drive away all my hurt.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Set sail towards the sun;
Feel the warmth that's just begun.
Share each and every dream,
They belong to everyone.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Battles oceans filled with tears.
At last my port's in view
Now that I've discovered you.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Like a breeze she'll gently sigh
And slowly bow her head
Then you'll hear her softly cry.
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Though actions speak louder than words,
But all I can say is I love you so
To drive away all my hurt.
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.
Feel the warmth that's just begun.
Share each and every dream,
They belong to everyone.
For my gentle lady.
Give it freely and completely
To my lady.

when ý listen to it,i lose my heart.my heart becomes a bird.it flies away and fetches my lady's soul to me.....
Ray Thomas has stated publicly that he wrote this song about his niece.
That Ray wrote this song about his niece is an interesting bit of info. I've been listening to the Moody Blues since I was a teenager (51 now) and I always loved this song. Years later, I was having a very emotional fight with my then girlfriend (now my wife of 30 years). As I was driving home I heard this song on the radio and I realized how much this girl meant to me. I realized that she was the one that I would "give my life so lightly" for. I turned around and we made up and now...

I realized that she was the one that I would "give my life so lightly" for. I turned around and we made up and now whenever I get angry at her, I just think about that night and I stop being angry. To me this song brings out the love between a man and a woman so deeply that it puts life into perspective. It is beautiful to have someone in your life that means so much!
