Waiting In Green Velvet
(专辑: Delilah Blue - 1995)
Waiting in green velvet with a
suitcase in her hand, Standing down a
ways from the
bus stop sign, Looking at the
sky, like she was bound for the
promised land, Checking out her watch like she was losing time. She was checking out her watch like she was losing time. Thought I
heard her talking something 'bout "Rainbow lights, a
psychedelic sight, it'll be here soon, Coming down to fly us all away. Can't you hear the
roar of the
distant engines from a
far-off moon? Are you packed and ready for Judgement Day?" So I
just sat there on the
bus stop bench awhile And watched her stare into the
sun. Reminded me what my grandma said when I
was just a
child, "That'll hurt your eyes, dear little one, That'll hurt your eyes, dear little one." Thought I
heard her talking something 'bout "Rainbow lights, a
psychedelic sight, it'll be here soon, Coming down to fly us all away. Can't you hear the
roar of the
distant engines from a
far-off moon? Are you packed and ready for Judgement Day?" The
bus pulled up and I
got in but the
girl didn't even move. This was not the
ride she was waiting for. The
bus driver just shook his head 'cause there's nothing in the
world to do And I
waved good-bye through the
slowly closing door. I
just waved good-bye through the
slowly closing door. [Chorus]
