Song lyrics

Tonight the moon is playing tricks again

Feeling sea sick again

And 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 has drawn its curtains

It's a private show no one else is going to 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

But if you wear that velvet dress


Tonight the moon is a mirrorball

Light flickers from across the hall

Who'll catch the star when it falls


If you wear that velvet dress
