If You Wear That Velvet Dress
Tonight the moon is playing tricks again
I'm feeling seasick again
The whole world could just dissolve
Into a glass of water
I've been good
'Cause I know you don't want me to.
Do you really want me to be blue as you?
It's her daylight that gets me through
We've been here before
Last time you scratched at my door
The moon was naked and cold
I was like a two-year-old
Who just wanted more
If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress
Tonight the moon's drawn its curtains
It's a private show
No one else gonna know
I'm wanting
Sunlight, sunlight fills my room
It's sharp and it's clear
But nothing at all like the moon
It's okay
The struggle for things not to say
I never listened to you anyway
And I got my own hands to pray
But if you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress
Tonight the moon is a mirror ball
Light flickers from across the hall
Who'll catch the star when it falls
(If you wear that velvet dress...)
