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
