Dark Star - Lady of mars HD

Released in 1981. Great NWOBHM song!

Lyrics:
if you love me for beauty
i ll stick with the sun cause at least it will warm my soul
if you love me for youth
better tell you the truth i am old

if you love me for money
then get out of my way cause i ve got little enough as it is
but if you love me for love then honey i am yours

i ll meet you at midnight for ever as not too far
far away from the earth light
ill take you away to the stars

my lady of mars
my lady of mars

stealer
stealing the time that we saw it was mine but the earth craft is down as we see
stealer
indulge the hand that he cant understand anyway
lier
the lies that could slip from your lips that can cause all my pain
freedom
what you desire
there is no reason why you should stay

ill meet you at midnight for ever is not too far
far away from the earth light

ill take you away to the stars
my lady of mars

sunset
is quetly fading
as your thoughts give way
to the peacefull sound of the night
in your head someone saying I love you
the journey is on the beginning
and still in my mind I can hear someone singing
above all the the things that they said
life was bringing to you

midnight while your troubles must sleeping
we ll be well on our way to the dawn
will be allright with the future before us
and noone will know where we gone
hold tight the starships are leaving
and I m still to see
that myself and a raven in
starlight there s just me
theres just you from now on

my lady of mars
my lady of mars

[alfaetrin]

One of the best ever heavy metal tracks, totally under-rated, fabulous music and lyrics.

[davidruiz]

An exemplar of what rocking heavy metal should sound like.

[rockrabbitt]

One of best NWOBHM tracks which can remind music lovers how the NWOBHM sounds like.

[DaredevilSR]

Takes me right back....🎶🎵🎸the journey is only beginning.... Love it

[DaredevilSR]

Hahahah great song haven't heard since 70s..thanks for posting 🎶🎵🎸

[paulwiley]

Not heard this gem for forty years
Felt like a spotty teenager once again
I always felt all Rockers had their favourite established band
( Rainbow 🌈 in my case) and then a fave NWOBHM band .

[brigade]

One of the 10 greatest heavy metal songs of all time!

[robertrobertsakarogerslemer]

Dark Star, debut easily one of the 10 best NWOBHM albums.

[thewok]

I constantly have a question why this banger has never been any more famous. I think the view of 200k is too tiny. It deserves at least 10m i sware. The psychedelic metal song describing love in a space theme is freakin unique and damn sick.

[harryheadbanger]

Bringing back the memories. I'll meet you at midnight. Great stuff !!

[metallicblood]

Recently learned to play this awesome tune with my band. Hope we can play it live on any occasion soon!

[victorkataoka]

Uma das melhores músicas da história do rock pesado! Me arrepio todo ao lembrar de ter baixado esse disco em meados de 2005 em alguma comunidade do orkut e até hoje ficar encantando quando escuto...

[Hawk]

While the album was released in 1981, the song was released in 1980 on Metal for Muthas vol 2.  :)

[JasonQuinn-qqom]

I love all the early NWOBHM stuff. That was an exciting time in music. I don’t think very many of those bands were even known outside the UK.

Full Correct Lyrics:

Well if you love me for beauty
Then I'll stick with the sun, cause at least it will warm my soul
And if you love me for youth
Then to tell you the truth, I'm bored
And if you love me for money
Then get out of my way, cause I've got little enough as it is
But if you love me for love
Then honey I'm yours

I'll meet you at midnight
Forever is not too far
Far away from the Earth's light
I'll take you away to the stars

My lady of Mars
My lady of Mars

Stealer!
Stealing the time that was yours, It was mine
But we ain't quite as dumb as we seem

Dealer!
That dealt us the hand that we can't understand anyway

Liar!
The lies that could slip from her lips that can cause all my pain

Freedom!
If that's your desire then there's no reason why you should stay

And I'll meet you at midnight
Forever is not too far
Far away from the Earth light
I'll take you away to the stars

My lady of Mars

Sunset is quietly fading
As your thoughts give way to the peaceful sound of the night
And in your head someone's saying, “I love you”
The journey is only beginning
And still in my mind I can hear someone singing
Of all the things that they said life was bringing to you

Midnight, while your troubles are sleeping
We'll be well on our way to the dawn
Will be alright, with the future before us
And no one will know where we've gone
Hold tight, the starships are leaving
And I'm still deceiving myself
We're believing in starlight
There's just me, there's just you from now on

My lady, My lady
My lady of Mars

[MorticiaObscurum]

Idk how my Spotify found this song and recommended it to me but I'm glad.

[caseytuttle]

This song got me into this genre. I never cared for Maiden, but this has opened my eyes. Or ears I should say

[CAINACC]

amazing song and band, on my wishlist for the future order...

[davidjames]

Reminescent of early Maiden with Paul Di'Anno. Quite good.

[ManuelaPosadaSanta]

Thank you so much for the lyrics. <3
