CRUSHED VELVET

When my way gets a little cloudy

Your love is my love and
And it's all cold and it's needy
Your love is your love, yeah
And it's all cold and it's needy yeah

No, I can't lie, man
I still miss those moments
I miss our 5 AM chats at
The back of the flats way
Way back when we were homeless
But not for a single second hopeless
No Ford Motors
But baby you know you gave me
Drive and you kept me focused
Told me if I never take the dive
How the parachute would probably never open
Shit, that's wise words my baby, well spoken
Or should I say, rather, well put together
See, there was nothing we
Couldn't face throughout
All those days we were broke together
Now here I am under these strobe lights
Singing the same songs we wrote together
Like, tell me ain't it just
Funny how the time goes, huh?
Shit gets tough I don't mind though
I just get high, that's that mind blown
And I know that I'm not the playwright
And I know I'm only playing my role
And it is fate that orchestrates
Throughout these strengths that
Keep us tethered so I
Just walk this tightrope
Singing along to "Call the Line High Hope"
So used to the darkness I still
Walk with my eyes closed

But it's all cold and it's needy

Your love is, your love yeah
And it's all cold and it's needy

Your love is my love and
And it's all cold and it's needy
Your love is, your love yeah
And it's all cold and it's needy yeah

When my way -a little cloudy, mmhm
And my nights get a little rough
And lonely
