I could drown myself in metaphor
I could crown your head and catch the floor
Lookin′ up at a yellow girlShe won't cut me free of her Vanilla Curls
I′m tied up in her shy and fair-haired fairy prison
I thought that I was high, but I had barely risen
Equipped with private eyes, her stare declared me missing
Tried to talk myself out of it, but I never listen
Two pairs of bare feet sneak out bearing secret care
Scared to make a scene, but can't bare to let it be
One stairwell love affair pairs well with twenty beers
Can you carry my care dear?
What will it take?
Was this a Mistake?
I'm paying the price
For those velvet eyes
In a minute she already put my feelings in their place
I hate vegetables, but I′d put that stringbean on my plate
She caught me by the ear and left me lying here in writhing fear
If I get any deeper, I might need diving gear
Instant kindred inhibition, a kiss then distance
It isn′t over, lets call it:
An infinite intermission
Two pairs of bare feet sneak out bearing secret care
Scared to make a scene, but can't bare to let it be
If I′m a bitter cold, then you're the remedy
Can you carry my care dear?
What will it take?
Was this a mistake?
I′m paying the price
For those velvet eyes.
