 There are ladies in my life

Lovely ladies in these lazy days

 And though I never took a wife

 May I say that I have loved me one or two

 Of the people in my past

Fading fac-es in a waking dream

 And though they never seemed to last very long

 There are faces I remem-ber

 >From the places in my past

 I said, all the dead-head miles

 And the insincere smiles

Sometimes I can laugh and cry and I can't remember why

 But I still love those

good times gone by

Hold on to them close or let them go

I don't know

 I just seem to sing these songs

 And say I'm sorry for the friends I used to know
