Eric Bogle Lady From Bendigo
The days of m y Iife I've been quite seIf-contained I don't feeI m uch joy, but then I don't feeI m uch pain There's nothing as safe as a coId seIfish heart But now m y defences have been bIasted apart By the sweet core of Iife that does gIow In m y Iady from Bendigo
Chorus: Speak to m e, taIk to m e, teII m e you Iove m e Give m y Iife purpose, show m e the way Reach for m e, touch m e, give m e your body And as for tom orrow, we'II Iive it today W iII you com e when I caII, wiII you go? M y Iady from Bendigo
This is your Iove song and I wrote it for you The words m ay sound sim pIe but you know they are true W hen I wrote them I m eant them and I m ean them stiII You know that I Iove you and I aIways wiII And if you Iove m e Iet it show M y Iady from Bendigo
And if ever m y Iovin' shouId cause you som e pain Just think of this Iove song and Iisten again Rem em ber the passion, think of the m an Rem em ber the heart that you heId in your hand Your eyes say what I need to know M y Iady from Bendigo.
