Reed Waddle - Velveteen Skies Lyrics
Some say life is a gamblin' gamePlayed by many and won by fewOthers say life is a price that you payWhen you get here to early and you're leaving to soonPrime of existence... like stars that shineBeneath a jet black velveteen skiesAnd at night the colors light up like a carnival rideDance like the demons in the winter moonlightThe moons shining at you like a candle in the nightOne day you'll find yourself upon a mountaintop looking in all directionsWondering how your dreary soul could grow so incredibly highTaste this kiss I'd kill to feel like this for all of my lifetimeHold you close beneath those velveteen skiesI've got these pictures hanging over my headDancing like a wildfire at nightAll of the colors come alive when I'm lying in my bedDance like the demon in the winter moonlightSaid yeah,Sweet Madeline you know what love can doPick you up and bring you to your kneesAnd it's never easy leaving deserts you once walked throughI'm a poet in the rain don't know where I'll be goingI'm a rambler in the wind don't know where my skies are blowingOne day you'll find yourself upon a mountaintop looking in all directionsWondering how your dreary soul could grow so incredibly highTaste this kiss I'd kill to feel like this for all of my lifetimeHold you close beneath those velveteen skiesNa na na na na na Velveteen Skies,Na na na na na na Velveteen Skies,Look outHey! Velveteen SkiesHey! Velveteen SkiesHey! Velveteen Skies
