Joan Baez - Lady Di And I Lyrics

Wake me with kisses
in the afternoon
The butler knows any time
you arrive is never too soon
He knows just where you are
by the sound of your car
He'll be waiting there
by the spiral stair

You could drive me crazy
with your unkempt hair
You don't know
what a comb is and frankly,
I don't care
'Cause you're fast
and you're wild
and you make the butler smile
By bringing me flowers
like meteor showers
Which reminds me of something
that I've recently seen
It was a look in the eye
of Lady Di

As she stood on the balcony
knowing the last fantasy
of the century
was in her long white veil
Maybe she would rather
have you than the Prince of Wales
And all the jewels and the crown
and all the villages and towns
that line the sea of the monarchy

And while I cut the roses,
what about Lady Di?
She's a child of the 80's
just like you and like I
Think of all of the things
that she'll never do
See a rock and roll show,
get a heart-shaped tattoo
Wear a t-shirt around
in the middle of town
Take a Harley ride
as the sun goes down

And think of all the music
that I make with you
Let's take a walk
on the wild side,
baby, I'm in love with you
I will leave my Dior
by the cabinet door
And I'll leave my bouquet
on the breakfast tray
My parents are out,
let's head north of the bay
Maybe go for a sail
just like the Prince of Wales

Does he ever love her
in the afternoon?
Was the kiss
that she gave him in public
just a little too soon?
And it's really a shame,
she'll take half of the blame
For the boys in the Maze
and their numbered days
Yes, there's a tear
in the eye of Lady Di

As she looks
from the balcony
knowing the last fantasy
of the century
is probably a lie
My heart goes out to you,
Princess, lovely Lady Di
For all that it seems,
here I stand in my jeans
For whatever it means,
it is I who am queen
