Lady Down On Love by Kenny Chesney Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's her first night on the town, since she was just eighteen
A lady down on love and out of hopes and dreams
The ties that once bound her now are broke away
And she's like a baby, just learning how to play
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
When he asked her to marry and she gladly said okay
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday

[Chorus]
Now she's a lady down on love
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound
To a man who would love her and never let her down

[Verse 2]
Well, I know the lady that's down on her love
'Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
But work took me away from home late at nights
And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
[Chorus]
Now she's a lady down on love
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound
To man who would love her and never let her down
Now she's a lady down on love
