Velvet Jane - Springtime

Asleep on a boat
in the Brazos River
losing my way again
green is the muck
gray is the duck
cold is my skin
where have i been
where have i been
perhaps in my heart
a place where it's dark
a place i've not let you in
maybe my head
a space where i'm dead
singing blue dreams and gin
where have i been
afraid of the person i am
can i contend
its not the end
where does it ever begin
where have i been
where have i been

Velvet Jane - Brazos River Boat Song

I tried to be
like anyone
like anything i could believe
to have fun
when you hold onto me
i am cold but i am free
i haven't told you everything
it's not as easy as it seems
i tried to feel
like i could breathe
like what is real
do i conceal what i believe
hurried up to slow down
picked a smile from the ground
it's not like i can leave this town
just take a bath so i can drown
don't come
look into my eyes
tried so hard to stop the cries
when you hold onto me
i am cold but i am free
i haven't told you everything
it's not as easy as it seems
