THE SMELL OF IT
there she goes I know she knows
she's not the girl she shows
she's a child of her father
blue eyes like blue skies
long hair which is fading fair
like the hair of her mother
he watched the world outside
you've lost your appetite
'cause baby, we'll come again
your heart is bounting strong
you know it won't be long
and maybe you'll love then
dressed up in a yellow coat
she's walking on my road
my love is grueling and grueling
I can see her from my eyes
she's calling out my vice
her stature is grueling and grueling
there she goes I know she knows
she's not the girl she shows
she's a child of her father
blue eyes like blue skies
long hair which is fading fair
like the hair of her mother
you watched the world outside
you've lost your appetite
'cause baby, we'll come again
your heart is bounting strong
you know it won't be long
and maybe you love her then
dressed up in a yellow coat
she's walking on my road
my love is grueling and grueling
I can see her from her eyes
she's calling out my vice
her stature is grueling and grueling
