Amid a sea of wrong’uns I kinda had a hunch What’s true and just lay someplace else Not with this feckless bunch In the darkest moments of my life Earth angels knocked my door Held me in their loving arms To feel no pain no more Oh, you beautiful creatures Showed me what was right That it takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light In my lovin' arms I hold you oh so tight I know what you need I give it freely to you While some were happy slappers Or maimers with their speech A different lesson I had to learn And you had come to teach That boy you just ain’t one of them There’s a better way to be Our love for you will see you through Fulfil your destiny Oh, you beautiful creatures Showed me what was right That it takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light In my lovin' arms I hold you oh so tight I know what you need I give it freely to you The purest diamonds in the rough Through the chaos and neglect Now on the path to righteousness Gave me something to respect How is it decided Whose paths we’re meant to cross Well I don’t care ‘cause you were there While others couldn’t give a toss Oh, you beautiful creatures Showed me what was right That it takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light In my lovin' arms I hold you oh so tight I know what you need I give it freely to you Oh, you beautiful creatures Showed me what was right That it takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light It takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light It takes more strength to be gentle Thank my ladies of the light
