Lyrics
Corduroy Voices
Time, time is just a lie to me.
The seconds say good bye to me,
As I slip away.
Sweet as a whispered melody
I let my favorite malady
Cary me away.
Chorus
Corduroy Voices
Sing from the void in me
Soft, black whispered
Wide wail polyphony.
Corduroy voices
Are callin? out to me.
Light, light is just a memory,
A distant dream that follows me
Through my dreary day.
Love, love is such a lovely thing.
Like a car crash in the spring,
They?re dragging me away.
And I?m hearin? ?
Chorus
Bridge
There?s something sweet when you?re walkin
I think it?s understood.
Just let your legs do the talkin'.
I?d speak your language if I could.
Chorus Out.
