Moody Blues, The - For My Lady Lyrics
My boat sails stormy seas
Battles oceans filled with tears
At last my port's in view
Now that I've discovered you
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
As life goes drifting by
Like a breeze she'll gently sigh
And slowly bow her head
Then you'll hear her softly cry.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
Words that you say when we're alone
Though actions speak louder than words
But all I can say is I love you so
To drive away all my hurt
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
Set sail before the sun
Feel the warmth that's just begun
Share each and every dream
They belong to everyone.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady

i think this is ray's best composition
RIP Ray Thomas
Wonderfoul!!!😍😍😍👍👍👍
Not too many songs have deep and meaningful lyrics as this timeless melody.
So happy to hear this awesome "ear candy." Don't know if you can feel as close to this song as I do. Growing up with the Moody Blues has provided timeless enjoyment throughout my life and look forward to hearing them in heaven.
Geweldige muziek
Beautiful girls in the video, nice !
The voice
seen them in philly in 72, best concert ever
finally made it into the hall of fame, thirty years to late
After 47 plus years I wonder what the lovely ladies would look like now?
How to write a love song...
Eu nasci em 1971. Obrigada.
Always loved this song. Rest In Peace Ray Thomas!
Está música me faz recordar ,e fico triste ,más ao mesmo tempo adoro ouvila .
Moma Cass and Michelle at one fifteen. Ladies of momas and papas.
I just love this song, and have done for about half a century nearly.
Neste dia, recebida como presente.
great singer Ray you will be always missed R.I.P Ray Thomas
What a lovely voice. Memories.
Ray Thomas had such a beautiful and unique voice...rip friend...
not a line on his face...nothing. he burned blue with excellent life , breath , and life's beautiful bounty.
I was wondering if anyone remembers that moody blues fans were and still our the most coolest resonable down to earth people. Ive never stopped being a fan . Dont even listen to todays. Un- real emotion platicated phony bs. Iam a hang glider trike pilot and when i flying i listen to all the moody blues . Such a great place to be near a cloud with my engine off , soaring with birds and listning to the moody blues in my comm.
Just dont want to come back down.
40 years ago I first heard the Moody Blues, and they are still my favorite group.
"Oh, I give My life, so lightly...for My Gene Pool Lady..."🎶

"TWANG!"(String broke)😏🎸
My favourite track of all time....... there is something about this one that has a timeless quality.

RIP Ray. You gave this song to the world and I will always bless you. Love is eternal and always will be. Much better than hate, at least to this rocker ~~ Peace and Tranquility
THAT WHAT YOU CALL LOVELY LADYS THERE ALL LOVELY THANKS RAY XXX
Elke meisie se gesig vertel 'n storie
wonderful song, RIP Ray....
Great song. RIHP Ray Thomas, you will be missed.
all I can say is I'm glad he knew they were going to be enshrined in the ?Rock HOF before he dies. it should've been done years before.
Gayle Ann, My Sweet Lady, you still fill my heart and soul. Ray completely captured these feelings...
Incredible! Everybody in this band wrote. That's very unusual, except if we were talking about The Beatles, but you can't count them because they were the greatest band in the history of the music business. Every single one of The Moody Blues could have been Julliard graduates, that's how good they were.
great song beats the crap we here today hands down
Another one of the heartbreakers - remembering your first love ...
I Love this Song...Moody Blues I Love you.
when there is such lovely music, how can there be so much anger
what a great voice and song
VERRY YERRY GOOD *******
this is the first time i have read comments on youtube as beautiful as this song. everyone has a story everyone is on love. and justin hayward and his lady are u on 50 years together
Still one of my all time favorites. Takes me back to a little dorm room in 1979-80 in North Carolina.........shared with 3 great guys
We miss you Ray but at least we have your wonderful music to remember you buy now and forever.
LOVE Ray Thomas...see you in the afterlife mate...your awesome brother!
Rest well Ray Thomas.
A mi mamá le agrado escuchar esta preciosa canción Áhora que la escucho la recuerdo a ella que no la tengo ya gracias muchas gracias
That music could come from the heart, and be so easy listen to as it was in times past. So much is lost in modern music, not just harmony, but the feeling and emotion. To much anger and hatred these days.
rip ray xxx
Favourite Moody Blues song as i age to be able to see these clips brings back good memories, great voice,great song,great group.
Seventh Sojourn is a masterpiece, and never got the credit it deserved.
When I hear this song, it makes me angry that the RnR HOF simply COULDN'T induct Ray Thomas before he passed away. Yet, at the same time, it makes me happy because it's such a beautiful love song. Just seeing ALL the beautiful women smiling at the camera during the video takes me to my happy place.
Charles Kuckel Well, to be fair, no matter how great the Moodys were, they were NOT about rock and roll, except for their early stuff, of course. Their symphonic sound put them in weird category, even though their songs got a lot of radio play, . I'm a classically trained musician, and I've always felt their music was much more akin to that genre than rock or pop. It was just really sophisticated music. The Hall of Fame have hung back on some great rockers sometimes in the past, too, but I agree that since they finally let the Moodys in, they should have let them in a decade ago, at least.
he was one of the best...RIP Ray
🎼❤️
Boy does this remind me of the 60s and the great love people had for each other
RIP, Ray Thomas.
Lovely song, I think it was a B side
Wonderiffic !!
Women are sooooo beautiful.... But there's a trick. You have to give your whole heart to just ONE woman... then she will be yours forever. (All things being equal!!!) The original 1972 Seventh Sojourn version segued perfectly with later live footage of Ray, spot on. They were all great, all four songwriters and Graeme's drums were perfect too. Pick ANY song from Seventh Sojourn.. loved this album since I was 16, and forever in my alltime top 20.
What a beautiful song
aww. so. beautigul. read. this. fuckrs. yea. lovely. read. listen. mfuckers. actions. spesk. louder. then. words. fuck. off. rats. um not. arat. really. naw. wrong. 2019
I've seen MB in London in 1972, now I'm waiting for them to come to Norway!!!
for my lady
Magnificent song, and terrific video to go with it. Seen them many times here in Bristol UK, but sadly only once with Ray. But it got harder and harder to get tickets, mainly because the fan club got first picks leaving very little over for the rest of us to fight over. BUT, thank you You Tube, I can watch them at home on my 27" screen, in comfort, beer in hand, and dream of the old days.
Wonderful song, sung and written by a great performer. RIP Mr. Thomas.
yo ho ho and a sea chantey!
One of the most beautiful love songs ever. Sure miss Ray. He gave us so much, and this will forever be a favorite of mine.

Great job.

What a wonderful video for this beautiful song! I especially like your photos of those lovely 60's girls! These women had the true unadorned , timeless beauty that the songs celebrates!
At 16 in 1972 this was one of my favorites, at 62 in 2019 it still is- all these years later, I still give freely for my lady- yes, the same one!
vive la vie et mort aux cons
I’m not that big a fan of Seventh Sojourn, but the two best tracks are next to each other, firstly Justin Hayward’s lovely New Horizons, then this very pretty Ray Thomas song.
For my lovely wife of 40 years! I love you Pam!
I fell in love with the Moodies when I was 10 years old, listening to Nights in White Satin. This year I’ll be 60 and I’m still lovin on them💙🎶💙
J'adore j'écoute en boucle
I listened to a classic hard rock station fashioned in 1967 after the new album format out of a convention in California!!!
They made room for this tender song!!!
GO FIGURE!!!
for my Lady Hijran
At 1:16 I believe thats Michelle Phillips and Mama Cass Elliott!
Such a beautiful song...great band as well.he was a good singer.i had never heard this until a few months ago and I played it again and again.truly a great song.
Auld britain is beside - as all of isles -
Song isn't the same without Ray. Play your beautiful music for the angels. Rest easy.
Belleza sonica,imperesedera,viajando inmaculada en su proposito artistico y elevador. Gracias al arte, sus vias , sus motores.Nutricion del alma.
I first heard a Moody's album in 1969 at my friend Chris's house. I fell in love and have been since. I have all their albums and have been to bunches of concerts.
So glad I grew up in this era of wonderful music. RIP Ray Thomas. You really sounded great on this song
At around 3:40 mark you can hear a string break on someone's instument
We miss you Ray. Rest easy.
The world needs more of this, especially these days 😎
for all ladies who are beautiful regardless
anybody catch Mama Cass and Mama Michelle at 1:16 ?
and Valeri Perrine at 1:26
we are united in Love no matter the politics
What a lovely video. Is this from someone in Russia?
Good músic forever
Thanks for the celestial art Ray. Rest in peace. "All art is a gift of the Holy Spirit. When this light shines through the mind of a musician, it manifests itself in beautiful harmonies. Again, shining through the mind of a poet, it is seen in fine poetry and poetic prose." ~ Baha'i Writings
