The night
She brushed her hand upon my flushed cheek
Smelled of childhood remnants of a dusty weeping willow
Clouds soothe; they're shredded by the calico
Were oh so vast and quick as I was on my own now
And this time, like every other time
I believe it, I never find
Another sweet little girl with sequined sea foam eyes
Ocean-lapping voice smile, coy as the brightest
Quiet span of sky
And I'm all alone again tonight, not again
Not again, not again
Not again, not again
Not again, mm-mm-ah
Mm-mm, ooh
And don't it feel alright?
And don't it feel so nice?
Lovely
Lovely
Lovely
Say, say it again, ah-ha
Lover, say it again
Ah-ha
Well, I'm unable to inhale all the riches
As I'm awkward as a wound on my bones
Still, I've got cobblestone joints
And plate glass points
As I'm all by myself tonight, not again
Not again
Ooh
Ooh
And don't it feel alright?
And don't it feel so nice?
Lovely
Lovely
Lovely
Say
Ah-ay-ay
Ah-ay-ay
Ah-ay-ay
Ha-de-ha
And if you should nervously break down
When it's time for the shakedown
Would you take it?
It's when you cry just a little
But you laugh in the middle
That you've made it
And don't it feel alright?
And don't it feel so nice?
Love
Love
Love
Love
La-la-la-la-la-lovely
Ah-la-la-la-la-lovely
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-lovely
La-la-la-la-lovely
Say it, say, say it again
Love, love, love
Love, so lovely
Lovely to do it again
It's so love-ly
To do it again, mm
Again
Oh, loving again
It's coming again
It's coming again
La-la-la-la-love
Oh, la-la-la-la-love
La-va-love, lovely
La-va-love, lovely
Ah-la-la-la-la-lovely
La-la-la-la-lovely
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-love
Ah-la-la-la-la-lovely
Say it, say, say it again
Ah-ah-ha-oh
You're so beautiful, tonight
It's coming again
Love-ly
Love, love
La-va-la-va-la-va
La-va-la-va-la-va, lovely
La-va-la-va-la-va
La-va-la-va-la-va
La-va-la-va-la-va
Lovely
