The Backyard Of My Life
From Your Window (Black Velvet Lady)
Drifting softly through the night
I tumble blindly into the light
From your window i saw your face
It was the bending of time and space
Flash forward turn the page
Meet me at the bottom of a spiral staircase
Shes wearing black velvet
She blows a ruby red kiss
She shot an arrow straight through my heart
How could she miss a love like mine
Let me get lost in your warm embrace
Watch your eyes sparkle and shine
Sunday morning at 9 o'clock
I woke up dreaming still in shock
Shes still sleeping shes miles away
What kind of heaven will we have today
Rest your mind on my pillow
Stay lady stay forever in this moment
I was lost and lonely like a rolling stone
Falling from the dead of night
That's when i saw her silhouette dancing in the candle light
Somehow i cast shadow while i was walking down the line
A beacon of hope in the darkness
She gives me a secret sign
Sometime later in the afternoon
I walked her home under a crescent moon
We said farewell then kissed goodbye
Painting wishes in the sky
Ill write your number on my wall
Maybe you will get a call
Wont you come see me again someday soon
Shes wearing black velvet
With queen Anne lace
She knows a trick or two with a king and an ace
She runs her finger down my spine
While she whispers promises of passion
To let me know that she is mine
