Jethro Tull - Velvet Green Lyrics
Walking on velvet green. scots pine growing.Isnt it rare to be taking the air, singing.Walking on velvet green.Walking on velvet green. distant cows lowing.Never a care: with your legs in the air, loving.Walking on velvet green.Wont you have my company, yes, take it in your hands.Go down on velvet green, with a country man.Whos a young girls fancy and an old maids dream.Tell your mother that you walked all night on velvet green.One dusky half-hours ride up to the north.There lies your reputation and all that youre worth.Where the scent of wild roses turns the milk to cream.Tell your mother that you walked all night on velvet green.And the long grass blows in the evening cool.And augusts rare delight may be aprils fool.But think not of that, my love,Im tight against the seam.And Im growing up to meet you down on velvet green.Now I may tell you that its love and not just lust.And if we live the lie, lets lie in trust.On golden daffodils, to catch the silver streamThat washes out the wild oat seed on velvet green.Well dream as lovers under the stars ---Of civilizations raging afar.And the ragged dawn breaks on your battle scars.As you walk home cold and alone upon velvet green.Walking on velvet green. scots pine growing.Isnt it rare to be taking the air, singing.Walking on velvet green.Walking on velvet green. distant cows lowing.Never a care: with your legs in the air, loving.Walking on velvet green.
