Lyrics

A fool for love
He knew that his heart was healin'
He'd been hurt too much,
To try again
But when she caught his eye
Ain't no man could fight the feelin'
He knew he had to try
To let love in

Smiled and let him know,
She was in the mood for talkin'
So then he began
To play the game
Before he knew it he
Had told her how much he'd been hurting
How he was hoping she was not the same

"Could you be, ...
The kind of lady that I'm seeking?
After all of this time could this be true love?"
And she said
"Boy you don't have to look no more.
I'll give the...
Love you need till ya' holler enough
Guaranteed"

"Not like the rest boy I'm a...
Kind Lady
You've been hurt but be sure, boy I am the cure
And when you wake up late thinkin' it's a dream
Just ask me boy you know you can count on me
Believe me"

Baby, this lady
You know what you found in me
Is a lady, Kind o'Lady
That can give you what you need
Baby, a Kind Lady
That will never leave you lonely
And just maybe, this lady
Finally, you found me your Kind Lady
