[Lyric] Lady of the Night (Janis Ian)

[Chorus]
Say, Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness into time
Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness through my mind

[Verse 1]
Come into my doorway
Teach me how to play the spinning game
And ride your train and be with your shows
Take me with you anywhere
Out of my chair, beyond the stairs
I don't care, I've no where else to go

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I want you to be near me
To feel me, heal me
The vibrite of you magic lights my lonliness

[Chorus]
Say, Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness into time
Lady of thе Night
Spin a saddened softness through my mind
[Verse 2]
Show mе to the memories
I've never seen, or ever be
And I'll try to reach whatever is beyond me
Teach me how to forget
The mindless strips of boot heel grips
My memory were stripped before you found me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I want you to hold me
Show me, know me
As the crystal shadows calls my comfort lulls

[Chorus]
Say, Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness into time
Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness through my mind

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Say, Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness into time
Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness through my mind
[Verse 3]
If you'd like to teach me
You can reach me on the street scene
Where the lampposts by the beat begin surrounding
You arrive; my senses call
Thee footsteps fall and all in all
The shimmering words of fall hang all around me

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I want so bad to see you again
To be you again, I need you again
Your plastic imagery to please and comfort me

[Chorus]
Say, Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness into time
Lady of the Night
Spin a saddened softness through my mind
