black velvet  

alannah myles'ın nefis şarkısı.

mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
jimmy rogers on the victrola up high
mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
the sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
the boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

black velvet and that little boy's smile
black velvet with that slow southern style
a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
black velvet if you please

up in memphis the music's like a heatwave
white lightening, bound to drive you wild
mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
the way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

black velvet and that little boy's smile
black velvet with that slow southern style
a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
black velvet if you please

every word of every song that he sang was for you
in a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could you do?

black velvet and that little boy's smile
black velvet with that slow southern style
a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
black velvet if you please

black velvet and that little boy's smile
black velvet with that slow southern style
a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
black velvet if you please

if you please, if you please, if you please

the lost fingers yorumu baş tacı edilesi eser.
hayır, insanı yoldan çıkaracak diye korkarım, başka bir şeyden değil..

arzunun, bekaretini kaybetmeden notaya dönüştüğü an. saldırgan arsız bir ateş gibi değil ama kızmış bir kor gibi.

elvis presley'e yazılmış en güzel şarkılardan biri.
hem buram buram sıcak kokuyor, hem hafiften kışkırtıcı.

"a new religion that'll bring ya'll to your knees.
black velvet, if you please..."
