The Language of Pop #4

Pale Blue Eyes - Velvet Underground

Sometimes I feel so happySometimes I feel so sadSometimes I feel so happyBut mostly you just make me madBaby, you justMake me mad
Linger onYour pale blue eyesLinger onYour pale blue eyes
Thought of you as my mountain topThought of you as my peakThought of you as everythingI've had but couldn't keepI've had but couldn't keep
Linger onYour pale blue eyesLinger onYour pale blue eyes
If I could make the world as pureAnd strange as what I seeI'd put you in the mirrorI put in front of meI put in front of me
Linger onYour pale blue eyesLinger onYour pale blue eyes
Skip a life completelyStuff it in a cupShe said, "Money is like us in timeIt lies, but can't stand upDown for you is up"
Linger onYour pale blue eyesLinger onYour pale blue eyes
It was good what we did yesterdayAnd I'd do it once againThe fact that you are marriedOnly proves, you're my best friendBut it's truly, truly a sin
Linger onYour pale blue eyesLinger onYour pale blue eyes
