Lyrics of lady on the other side of town(qi yu ge ci )

Lady on the other side of town

All his friends would go to

movies on Friday nights

They'd be drinking beer

and acting like clowns

But he would go to see a lady

on the other side of town

She lived just a block away from Blue Street

Near the cemetery grounds

In a two story house by the river

On the other side of town (chorus)

And the lady on the other side of town

Never tried to make him cry or put him down

And today he wished the lady could be found

On the other side of town

She was 34 and he was 19

It was a social oddity

But nobody knew save the cat and the wind

That an older woman loved him

They'd play Joni Mitchell records for hours

Smoking cigarettes and watching TV

On a mattress on the floor by the window

Where she made love to him (chorus)

And the lady on the other side of town

Never tried to make him cry or put him down

And today he wished the lady could be found

On the other side of town

" I'll make you some tea,"

the lady would say

" If you would play piano for me "

Music......

And the lady missed her husband

She talked of her divorce all the time

Oh, she missed her lover

And her was missing his

Cause his lover was an actress

She made him promises and let him down

So he had to find his love from a lady

On the other side of town (chorus)

And the lady on the other side of town

Never tried to make him cry or put him down

And today he wished the lady could be found

On the other side of town

The cold icy beam of the moonlight

Cast its shadows on their bodies that danced

And he noticed that the lady had fallen asleep

So he slipped on his pants

And he wrote her a note on hte table

Then he put the pencil down

Said that he was gonna leave the lady

On the other side of town (chorus)

And the lady on the other side of town

Never tried to make him cry or put him down

And today he wished the lady could be found

On the other side of town

As he closed the gate behind him

The tears welled up in her eyes

With the note in her hand at the window

Well he never knew how much that he loved her

And the thought never did occur

The someday he'd be somewhere far away

And still be thinking of her

And still be thinking of her

And the lady on the other side of town

Never tried to make him cry or put him down

And today he wished the lady could be found

On the other side

On the other side

On the other side of town
