Lady You Are
One Way Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been with you for awhile now
And you're still so nice
Not like all the others I've been around
Who love to fuss and fight

You've changed in no way
You're always at your best
I love your style, your personality
You're better than the rest
You're so considerate when it comes to me
I'm so glad to have you
So splendid you are to me
I love your everything

‘Cause you're a lady (Lady)
Lady you are
You're a lady (Lady)
And I'm so proud of you

You're so sweet and innocent
In all the things you do
Not to mention your lovely smile
So plentiful and true

You've changed in no way
You're always at your best
I guess that's why I really love you
You try so hard for me

Multitude, self gratitude
You deserve in every way (Oh, oh)
Astonishing you are to me
I love your everything

‘Cause you're a lady (Lady)
Lady you are
You're a lady (Lady)
And I'm so proud of you

Lady, lady
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You're a lady (Lady)
Lady you are
You're my lady (Lady)
And I'm so proud of you

I wouldn't know what to do with myself (Lady)
(Lady you are) If I ever lost you, no, no
I love the way you carry yourself (Lady)
(I'm so proud of you) ‘Cause you're a lady

I-I-I don't wanna lose you, no (Lady)
(Lady you are) ‘Cause you're a lady
Lady (Lady)
(I'm so proud of you)

You're better than the rest (Lady)
(Lady you are) You're a lady
I love the way you carry yourself (Lady)
(I'm so proud of you) ‘Cause you're a lady





I-I-I- don't wanna lose you, no (Lady)
(Lady you are) ‘Cause you're a lady

I heard this song the first time after I lost a State high, jumping track meet in Nashville Tennessee, which was in 1984. This song has been a motivating force for me for the past 39 years. Even at 56 years of age, I still listen to it to get motivation and to bring back memories of the good old days of the 80s. One of my favorite R&B songs of all time.

I will never forget the man who dedicated this song to me back in 1985. I was beyond flattered. 🥰

My baby still sings this to me today, and I love him deeply for it. 34 years together.
