Lady, you're going 'cross the water,
Well, don't you think you oughta
Be waiting a while?
Are you acting
On what your heart has told you;
Is nothing gonna hold you
From flying away? Ah ha
Flying away, ah ha,
Flying away.
'Cause there's nowhere to go,
Though the road is outstretched before you.
And the farther you go,
I said it's not gonna get you to heaven,
I said it's not gonna get you to heaven
And you know just who you are.
And you know that there's somethin' between us,
And you like what you feel.
But I can tell that you're not gonna turn back,
Well, I can tell that you're not gonna turn back,
And don't you know I'm a little bit sad?
Oh no.

Ooh la la la la
Ooh la la la la
Ooh la la la la
Ooh la la la la
Aah, aah, aah

Mister, you better get a move on,
You better get a fix on
You better walk straight.
I said Lady,
Oh take me if you want me;
Won't you take me as you find me?
Oh, I'm needing your love so bad,
I'm needing your love so bad,
I'm needing your love.
And there's nowhere to go,
Though the road is outstretched before you.
And the farther you go,
I said it's not gonna get you to heaven,
I said it's not gonna get you to heaven
And you know just who you are.
And you know that there's somethin' between us,
And you like what you feel.
But I can tell that you're not gonna turn back,
Well, I can tell that you're not gonna turn back,
And don't you know I'm a little bit sad?
Just a little bit sad,
Just a little bit sad…

You're takin' the long way,
She's turnin' about
