The Lyrics
Velvet dawn, what's the veil that you have on?
Could it be the faded prose of night gone by?
And did I hear you say
you were turning into day
To bring to us a blue and cloudless sky?
She's brand new day, all rosy like a baby
Rise and see her if you're not too lazy
She walks the earth with a lantern in her hand
Looking for the break of day, so grand
Chorus:
Velvet dawn, what's the veil that you have on?
Could it be the faded prose of night gone by?
And did I hear you say
you were turning into day
To bring to us a blue and cloudless sky
When I look at her I call her velvet dawn
Prettiest colors I ever laid eyes on
There's gold and pink and tenderest of blue
Promise she will take the breath from you
Repeat Chorus
Could it be the faded prose of night gone by?
And did I hear you say
you were turning into day
To bring to us a blue and cloudless sky?
She's brand new day, all rosy like a baby
Rise and see her if you're not too lazy
She walks the earth with a lantern in her hand
Looking for the break of day, so grand
Chorus:
Velvet dawn, what's the veil that you have on?
Could it be the faded prose of night gone by?
And did I hear you say
you were turning into day
To bring to us a blue and cloudless sky
When I look at her I call her velvet dawn
Prettiest colors I ever laid eyes on
There's gold and pink and tenderest of blue
Promise she will take the breath from you
Repeat Chorus
