Velvet Coil

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The chimney swifts are scratching at the sky again Dusk weighs heavy and blue on the leaves I am at my loneliest when you're here Holding a mirror To the dark river that runs within me [Chorus 1] I don't want to talk, I want to hold still So I don't spill the contents I've been trying so hard to keep it filled [Verse 2] No lights on in this room Just the outline of how I ruined the evening With my whine All will be forgiven in time, but as the sky drops now Into the prowling crouch of night [Chorus 2] I don't want to talk, I want to hold still Like a hawk in mid-air, the wind Folding in place to hold me there What it must feel like to ridе the air That velvet coil That vеlvet coil
