Velvet Morning

lyrics

Yes, it's been long
And yes, I still feel strong
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah

Time stands still
As you take your last pill
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah

And now I'm trying to tell you
About my life and my tongue is twisted
And more dead than alive and my feelings
My feelings have been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged man
And look what they made
I said, don't you find that it's lonely
The corridor you walk there alone
And life is a game you've tried
And life is a game you're tired

Yes, I'm coming down
Your beauty is a colour surround
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah

And now I'm trying to tell you
About my life and my tongue is twisted
And more dead than alive and my feelings
Have always been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged man
And look what they made
I said, don't you find that it's lonely
The corridor you walk there alone
And life is a game you've tried
And life is a game you're tired

And life is a game you've tried
And life is a game you've tried
And life is a game you've tried
And life is a game you've tried
