Deeper Tones Of Blue

Album: The Nightmare Of J.B. Stanislas [2010]
Author: Nick Garrie

Your lips are slightly warm

And cling like a summer wind

I’d like to lose myself in you

 

I’d like to love you

If that means anything

And watch your eyes turn deeper tones of blue

 

I’d like to stroll along

The seashore of your mind

And whisper all my secrets to the breeze

I’d watch the silver seagull

As it billowed through the air

Then plunge into a century of sea

 

I’d like to love you

If that means anything

And watch your eyes turn deeper tones of blue

 

But the girl lay silent

As a rainwashed grave

Not a sound she made

Not a sign she gave

And the man hung his head

In despair

And watched the golden sunlight ripple through her hair

 

I’d like to love you 

If that means anything

And watch your eyes turn deeper tones of blue

 

I’d like to love you 

If that means anything

And watch your eyes turn deeper tones of blue

 

Yes I’d like to love you 

If that means anything

And watch your eyes turn deeper tones of blue
