Quelques supports et autres collectors :

Double Album CD Promo « The Songs Of Rod Temperton » Réf : 2002 / Chrysalis Music La version qui se trouve sur l’album Thriller est en fait une version raccourcie. Ce double album promo qui n’est malheureusement jamais sorti dans le commerce et recherché par les collectionneurs contient cette fameuse « The Lady in My Life (Full Version) » de 6’11. Sa qualité sonore n’est pas aussi bonne que la version orginiale mais les fans s’en contenteraient facilement.

Les Paroles :

The Lady In My Life
Par : Rod Temperton

There’ll be no darkness tonight
Lady our love will shine
Just put your trust in my heart
And meet me in paradise
You’re every wonder in this world to me
A treasure time won’t steal away

So listen to my heart
Lay your body next to mine
Let me fill you with my dreams
I can make you feel so right
And baby through the years
Gonna love you more each day
So I promise you tonight
That you’ll always be the lady in my life

Lay back in my tenderness
Let’s make this a night we won’t forget
Girl, I need your sweet caress
Reach out to a fantasy
Two hearts in the beat of ecstasy
Come to me

And I will keep you warm
Through the shadows of the night
Let me touch you with my love
I can make you feel so right
And baby through the years
Even when we’re old and gray
I will love you more each day
‘Cause you’ll always be the lady in my life

Whoo girl, let me keep you warm
You are the lady in my life
Fill you with the sweetest love
Always the lady in my life
Lay back in my tenderness
You are the lady in my life
Rock me with your sweet caress

Stay with me
I want you to stay with me
I need you by my side
Don’t you go nowhere
Let me keep you warm
You’re my lady
Fill you with the sweetest love
I wanna touch you baby
You’re my lady and I love you girl
