Belle & Sebastian - Long Black Scarf lyrics

It came my way on a lonesome day The long black scarf took my possession Valentino's own, pa**ed down from the throne With powers to use with discretion Through hallowed hall Through streetlight stroll Through winter snow, the scarf's a-flying He can feel salvation coming around This time he knows it exists The instant cool, the s**ual appeal Of a handsome romantic that no girl could resist Around my neck I slowly felt The noose of innocence, it was tightening You got all that you thought you wanted And now there's ice in your heart You kissed the girls, you notched them up You said goodbye, you figured it out You learned the game, you're not the same Icy drift, a solar eclipse Who can tell your story? Long black scarf, put it on Bound for love, bound for glory
