Three Times A Lady Lyrics

Artist: The Commodores

Three Times A Lady
The Commodores

Thanks for the times that you've given me
The memories are all in my mind
And now that we've come to the end of our rainbow
There's something i must say out loud

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you...
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you... I love you...

When we are together the moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you, to hold you
To feel you, to need you
There's nothing to keep us apart

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you... I love you...

I love this song. the second stanza is as follows
You shared my dreams my joys my pains you make my life worth living for
and if i had to live my life over again i would spent each and every moment with you

I'm singing this on my wedding day next month to my lady. I sang it to her on our first date 8 years ago. Shhhhhh, don't say anything. It's a surprise to her.

My girlfriend weighs over 300 lbs, and I sing this song to her because it fits her the best.

This song isn't actually about breaking up at all - quite the opposite I heard LR interviewed and he wrote it after he heard his Dad do a speech on his parents golden wedding anniversary (hence the "end of our rainbow" - pot of gold I guess?!) - his dad said something like "you are a mother, wife, best friend" or something ike that - as in 3 times a lady!!! i too always thought it was about breaking up and was so happy when i heard it wasn't!!!!

This song makes me like, like a singer. So favorate song of my life

by coconut on 1/16/2011 11:38am
this song is the favourate song for me,i played it when i noticed that my boyfriend wanted us to become in the end of our relationship. Although to me it was difficult, i thank him for the time he given me, i told him that the memories will always in my mind because he was the one who shared my dreams,joy & pains. He was my man,best friend but most of all my lover, so to me he was three times a man & loved him.

This song is for my mother Linda. She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in October 2012. Doctors recently advised she has 6 months to year from first diagnosis. She is "Three Times A Lady"...my mother, my best friend and my everyday hangout buddy. She has given me so many memories.....MOM, I LOVE YOU!

by Notsobo on 7/23/2012 11:25am
When I was younger, I used to think of it as a song about 2 lovers who couldn't be together because of their circumstances (distance/moving)... but now I see if fits for lovers who are forced apart by death. Very sad, but still lovely.

by Arva Bottley on 8/15/2012 11:54pm
I love this song - My baby's daddy used to sing this to me before died many years ago & I think of him ever time I hear it & will till I die myself, & yes I still love him

This is truly one of the best classic songs ever. It goes back to my high school days. They just don't make music like this anymore.

by Mandla on 4/26/2014 4:06am
I took it as just another old song. but when I listened to the original 6 mins+ version I fell for it.

by Shan G on 7/23/2014 7:15am

@faith - Yes that is correct. There are actually 3 versions of this song. The long version has the part you are referring too.
