THIS VELVET GLOVE Anthony Kiedis/John Frusciante/Michael Balzary/Chad Smith
Close to my skin I'm falling in Someone who's been
Sittin' by the phone I'm left alone In another zone
John says to live above hell and My will is well
No one is waiting For me to fail My will could sail yeah
It's such a waste to be wasted In the first place I want to taste the taste of Being face to face with common grace To meditate on the warmest dream And when I walk alone I listen To our secret theme
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close That can see right through I'd take a fall and you know That I'd do anything I will for you
Sailin' for the sun 'Cause there is one knows where I'm from I care for you I really do I really do
Come closer now So you can lie Right by my side
Sit alone in the sun I wrote a letter to you Getting over myself
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close That can see right through I'd take a fall and you know That I'd do anything I will for you
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close They were made for you I'd take a fall and you know That I'd do anything I will for you
Close to my skin Someone who's been I'm falling in
Disasters are Just another star Falling in my yard
