Old Arrows - Violet Gray Lyrics




I can't recall another day
That has made me want to run to the hills and away like today
But the only thing that keeps me around this dead end town is you
Violet Gray

I walk the side streets
And all the things I never got to say
They meet me there
Violet Gray

Girl do you still remember the way
I would call out to you from the darkened street up to
Your lighted window pane when it was getting late?
And you would call me crazy
Said your old man he hates me, he says you're makin' a mistake
But you came down anyway, to me
Violet Gray

And every night we
Stared straight into the beating heart of fate
And swore we'd never change
Violet Gray

Oh darlin', I know you can't make your heart
Not feel the way it used to do
Violet, I learnt all of those songs you used to choose
On the juke box at the bar, I play 'em on that old guitar
You know the one- it bears your name

I never tried to control you
No matter how I wished you'd stay
You were reachin' for the sky
And I had one foot in the grave
Still the only thing that keeps me from layin' down in that cold, cold ground, is you
Violet Gray

I know I might be
A fool whose meant to
Wait hopelessly in vain
To see you again
Violet Gray
