lyrics
Venus and Me
When you’ve got time, time to burn
listening to the world
Listen to it’s song
Can you forgive, forgiveness is everything
Heal it’s broken wing
Help it fly again
When you’ve got love
so much love to give
Reaching out to touch
It doesn’t seem too much
It gives so much peace
With nothing in your wake
A cold and honest truth
We’ve so much more to lose
High above the moon as we watch the night unfurl
Lovely Venus shines on the lonely boys and girls
She’s a sapphire, she’s a diamond, she’s a pearl
Feel the warmth
And the still of the night
The stars all shining bright
and lovely Venus and me
Theres no sound, no talk, no sermons heard
no spiel, no song, no mockingbird
No speech, no voices anywhere in the world
Theres no sound, no talk, no sermons heard
no spiel, no song, no mockingbird
No speech, no voices anywhere in the world
