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
