Lyrics
Even if I'm sick in bed
With a towel around my head
Even if I'm feeling blue
And crying's all I do
I know she'll be there beside of me
Lady Day, please won't you stay
My Lady Day
Even if the sea does rise
And there's waves up to the skies
And the evening bells won't ring
No matter how you pull the thing
I know she'll find some way to soothe my mind
Lady Day, please won't you stay
My Lady Day
Even if the nightbird sings
Some foul and tempered thing
And it wakes me from a dream
Of booze and nicotine
I know she'll be there beside of me
Lady Day, please won't you stay
My Lady Day
Even if the world turns white
And the night turns into night
And there's rebels on the beach
Exchanging weapons, each to each
I know she'll find some way to soothe my mind
Lady Day, please won't you stay
My Lady Day
Even if I get sick as hell
And I never do get well
And at last my heart does fail
And to some golden city sail
I won't much care to love no angel there
Lady Day, please won't you stay
My Lady Day
