Lady I Could Serve You Well Songtext
von Murray Head

I′m a lover, not a wolf
Got no way to talk, just a simple truth
I don't know how to break the ice
I′m afraid of blowing it and paying out the price
For trying too hard

Lady, I could serve you well, if only I could find the way to tell you.

She has all the strength I lack
I get frightened that she'll turn her back.
She might be one of those awkward kind of women,
That wait until a man comes up to show him she's unwilling to share

Lady, I could serve you well, if only I could find the words to tell you.


If I chased would you hide?
Would the forfeit be swallowed pride?
What′s it worth if I unearth
A love that I thought dead?
Will my questions be unanswered and stay inside my head?

I can′t speak out aloud,
Have to button down my thoughts
Or say it with my eyes
I don't know how to meet you
The terms are in your hands.
I′m not here to defeat you - it's for you to make demands
- I don′t know why
