C
Oh the lady will stun you when you meet face to face
Am
Her beauty unbounded by time or by place
C
And she&rsquo ll dance round your shyness, poke fun at your gloom
G
But you can&rsquo t help but smile as she gooses the groom
C
She lives in the ruins of a honeymoon suite
Am
The optimal place for the star-crossed to meet
C
And the oracle says that the maiden is chaste
G C
Now she&rsquo s throwing those pennies right back in your face
G C
And she&rsquo ll shine on you tonight
G C
Let her shine on you tonight
D C
Oh lady, our lady of light
C
She will ask to be rescued from the first rays of dawn
Am
Then she&rsquo ll throw down a rope that is studded with thorns
C
And at last when you climb it, when your palms are all torn
G C
She&rsquo ll be taking the sun in from a chair on the lawn
G C
And she&rsquo ll shine on you tonight
G C
Let her shine on you tonight
D C
Oh lady, our lady of light
C
Don&rsquo t ask too many questions or you&rsquo ll end up like me
Am
Marooned on an island, circumscribed by her sea
C
And I guess that I&rsquo m stuck here, to no one&rsquo s surprise
G C
I surrendered my freedom when I looked through her eyes
G C
And she&rsquo ll shine on you tonight
G C
Let her shine on you tonight
D C
Oh lady, dear lady, our lady of light
