When I Want to Love a Lady Songtext
von Bobby Bare

I hate to leave your party, and these friendly people here
But I don′t fit in with all that's goin′ on
Your love's an invitation, but I can't go along
′Cause when I want to love a lady, I go home

I go home to love a lady
She′s waiting up for me
A lady who has spent the night alone
No other man has touched her, she saves her love for me
When I want to love a lady, I go home


It would be so easy, to live just for tonight
Yet I know to love you would be wrong
So I won't accept your offer, although temptation′s strong
When I want to love a lady I go home
I go home to love a lady

I go home to love a lady
She's waiting up for me
A lady who has spent the night alone
No other man has touched her, she saves her love for me
So when I want to love a lady, I go home
