Velvet Morning
[Verse 1]
Yes
It's been long
And yes
I still feel strong
[Refrain]
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah
[Verse 2]
Time
Stands still
As you take
Your last pill
[Refrain]
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah
[Chorus]
And now I'm trying to tell ya about my life
And my tongue is twisted, man, more dead than alive
And my feelings, they've always been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged, man, look what they made
[Post-Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Yes
I'm coming down
Your beauty is
A colour surround
[Refrain]
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me, yeah
[Chorus]
And now I'm trying to tell ya about my life
And my tongue is twisted, man, more dead than alive
And my feelings, my feelings, they've been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged, man, look what they made
[Post-Chorus]
He said, don't you mind that's it 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
