lyrics

She wore a black velvet dress,
With palms opened to the sky
She looked her best.
And across the bottom was black lace,
Across her eyes was painted that accentuated gaze.

Chorus
I know you got that singular feelin’
That you got no time for loving me, it’s ok.
I know that your eyes are peelin’
For the next one in line so I’ll get out of your way.

The love we shared was ephemeral,
Contentment seemed to be that ever-elusive pearl.
And I’m sure eventually we’ll find our way,
Everything happens for reasons as they say yeah yeah.

Chorus

Lord tell me where I need to go,
I’m grasping on to a shredded rope.
Cause I miss the way you shine, underneath the morning light.
No I don’t think its right
That you ain’t here with me tonight,
That you ain’t here with me tonight.

She wore a black velvet dress,
With palms opened to the sky
She looked her best.
And across the bottom was black lace,
Across her eyes was painted that accentuated gaze.

Chorus

Lord help me let go of this load.
I’m grasping on to sinking gold
From our ship lost at sea.
This voyage passed, the voyage of you and me.
