I saw her first in late September Sitting alone out of the rain (yeah) We looked across at one another And she had a smile to ease the pain I found the one that lazy day The one that took my breath away Beautiful lady Under the stars, under her spell I was in heaven, out of my hell Beautiful lady (oh, baby) ♪ Next day we met along the river Went to a bar in New Belgrade (yeah) I spent many happy hours with her I was so glad she missed the train (yeah) Like waking up out of a dream I felt like the cat who got the cream Beautiful lady Under the stars, under her spell I was in heaven, out of my hell Beautiful lady (oh) A few days later she was gone I took a job and bruised my soul So far away A year had passed, the time dragged on Then last night she telephoned Gave back my life Came back to me, I'm no longer blue Now it is back to me and you, girl Beautiful lady I found the one that crazy day The one that took my breath away Beautiful lady (oh, baby) ♪ Lady, lady (ooh) ♪ Lady, lady
