Lady Day
From 'The 8-Year Gap', 'Radiaxial' and 'Live at The Moorings'
I screwed you in a velvet dress
I called the shots and I was mean
And as the rain poured down and soaked me
I knew I'd been indiscreet
(Chorus)
When I played with fire
I never knew that I would burn so deeply
A silhouette was all I needed
To make my heart turn
(Chorus)
Turning in my bed
I was an angel torn from heaven
I dreamt of sea and stars and sky
And him and me forever
(Chorus)
I watch the planes go by
Was that a spaceship? Can I catch a ride?
I saw the winter turn my heart to ice
And I was incomplete
Chorus:
And I sang along to Lady Day
When I'm down I listen to Lady Day
She makes my dark clouds melt away
When I'm down I listen to Lady Day
I'm winning
God willing
