Bruce Hornsby - Lady With A Fan Lyrics

Send "Lady With A Fan" ringtone to your cell

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm

That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done

While the firelight's aglow strange shadows in the flames will grow

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar

Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm

In Carlisle he loved a lady many years ago

Here beside him stands a man a soldier by the looks of him

Who came through many fights who lost in love

While the story teller speaks a door within the fire creaks

And suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there

Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair

Takes her fan and throws it to the lion's den

Which of you to gain me tell will risk uncertain pains of hell

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance

Soldier gave at least a try soldier being much too wise

Strategy was his strength and not disaster

The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him

That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise

The story teller makes no choice soon you will not hear his voice

His job is to shed light and not to master not to master
