Songtexte Violet - Live At Alexandra Palace - Sea Girls

V went into town with her friends tonight
Met you in the back under exit lights
Felt so harmless
Goddamn charmless

I got you a drink of a whisky and coke, yeah
Forgot my lines every time we spoke
I was joking
Outside smoking (sing it!)

And I paid the price for bad advice
Now I'm on my knees and singing

Violet!
Now my mind is set
Hold my cigarette
'Cause I'm not leaving here without you
I've been so dumb
A prodigal son
But now I'm done
I won't be leaving here without you
V-I-Oh my God, Violet

You spill your drink so we share my beer, yeah
You say "Let's get out of here"
There's people fighting
I hate this lighting

Five years on and here we are
Same two people in the same damn bar
All those chances
Olive branches

And I paid the price for bad advice
Now I'm on my knees and I'm singing

Violet!
Now my mind is set
Hold my cigarette
'Cause I'm not leaving here without you
I've been so dumb
A prodigal son
But now I'm done
I won't be leaving here without you
V-I-Oh my God, Violet

Oh, I'll let you go
If you give me a reason
I have been to your house
And I've been to oblivion

Could this be forever?
Or just a new season?
There's no one else like you

Violet!
Now my mind is set
Hold my cigarette
'Cause I'm not leaving here without you
I've been so dumb
A prodigal son
But now I'm done
I won't be leaving here without you

Violet!
Now my mind is set
Hold my cigarette
'Cause I'm not leaving here without you
I've been so dumb
A prodigal son
But now I'm done
I won't be leaving here without you
V-I-Oh my God, Violet

I want you Violet
I'm begging Violet
Why don't we try it?

I want you Violet
I'm begging Violet
Why don't we try it?
V-I-Oh my God, Violet
Yeah, oh V-I-Oh my God, Violet
