Lady i can't explain

By: jimmy buffett

1979

What could i do?

That's never been done before

What can i say?

That hasn't been said by scores



If i was a designer i could do nothin' finer

Than dress you in style

But i'm a hopeless romantic still behind all these antics

Is a heart full of smiles



So i'll just keep on dreamin' (i'll just keep on dreamin')

Thoughts that are in my brain

You just keep on bein'

Lady i can't explain



I know that i've

The imagination of a child

And there are times

When i let it all run wild



But if i hurt, you forgive

Still you won't let me live

Some of those episodes down



That's why i love you

And put no one above you

Love your sights and your sounds



So, i'll just keep on movin' (i'll just keep on movin')

When the forecast calls for rain

You just keep on bein'

Lady i can't explain



So i'll just keep on movin' (i'll just keep on movin')

When the forecast calls for rain

You just keep on bein'

The lady i can't explain

No no, the lady i can't explain



Coda:

Ah, yes i love you

Put no one above you

You're the lady i can't explain
