Transvision Vamp - Velveteen lyrics

Once I could have held you And never let you go Now I see you calling me back And I really do not know "Velveteen, I want you back." Things change and people change And my mind just gets hazy I truly thought I knew you How wrong can you be "Velveteen, I want you back." Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen, Velveteen Well it's been a while And things have been wild But I've learnt to smile Yeah now I smile I can't spend my life Waiting to get hurt When you pay the price You own the dirt But I still think of you Yeah I think of you Think of you Do you think of me Think of me Like I think of you Well the days go by And the wheels still turn When the night comes down The fire still burns And the mind is strong But the heart it yearns Then the pain was gone But it's now returned "Velveteen, I want you back. Velveteen, I want you back." It was deep in the night When he came through my door He came to my room At the end of the hall He lent over the bed And kissed my forehead He brushed the hair from my eyes And then began to slide... Slide his hand down Underneath the sheets 'Till he reached my waist He didn't waste no time He put his hand on my thigh He put his thoughts in my mind And I drowned in his eyes As we began to slide... Then he whispered soft Like the sea in a shell "Yeah I been away Where I been I can't tell But I got something for you Yeah it's a memory Hey Velveteen Do you remember me..." "Hey yeah I remember I remember you Hey yeah I remember Remember you" "You know I really want you Yeah I love you too You know I really want you Velveteen." "But you don't really love me I know you say you do But you never really loved me Loved me true." "I swear I really love you I swear I want you too I swear I really love you Velveteen." Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Now the past is back Knocking on my door Breathing pa**ion Declaring all Shining like a ring With a hidden curse Sayin' the same things Just in different words "I want you back." Velveteen "I want you back." Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen, Velveteen Velveteen "Velveteen I'm here for you Velveteen Always yours You will be mine Until the day..."
