john k samson - velveteen lyrics

Loading...

flowers, moonlight, sticky things
songs that mean nothing, places i’ve been
blood fruit, crying, old guitar strings
they’re all softly poetic, smoothly obscene

when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be velveteen
when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be
velveteen

i recall all those wasted snowflakes dying in the fall
and i remember those starry eyes, rose gl-sses bewitch me, saw that
our words and our bodies will always flow, like the
cool, clear stream on the rocks below

when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be velveteen
when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be
velveteen

we sat on the beach at night, and it shone fantastic
and the lake after dark looks like, looks like burn plastic
we all need a sp-ce to fall down and grow
and it’s so sickly-sweet like some bad t.v. show

when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be velveteen
when i use the word “you”
i don’t know who i mean
if this song was a painting
it would be
velveteen

forgot that we used to say
“we all learn to fly some day”
i thought that was nice
but i was wrong
