Sad Lady

Before the dawning light of morning she is leaving
She can no longer hide her feelings
It's hard to smile and hide the teardrops when it's ending
So sorry this is not the life that she intended
If only they had known the secret held inside her
She knows they would have tried to guide her
Though memories of sunny days will leave her never
The time has come that she must leave them all forever

Life spins a web and holds you tighter every day
She would be dying slowly if she had to stay
Now is the chance to fly away

Sad lady, sad lady

She's free at last and now the past is far behind her
She'll go where nobody will find her
There seems no other way to stop her heart from breaking
No time to think of all the trouble she is making
Whatever lies in store she knows that she can make it
The world is hers and she will take it

No strings around her heart to pull in all directions
No one to tell her where to place such deep affection

Life spins a web and holds you tighter every day
She would be dying slowly if she had to stay
Now is the chance to fly away

Sad lady, sad lady
