Silver blanket

Oh, no, not my baby
Not my girl.

If there was another blanket on the bed
There'd be so many things that wouldn't need to be said
But, I'll be back in Europe soon
I'll bring you this album and a balloon
Maybe a silver blanket could dry my tears away
But, is that really what you wanna hear me say?

You said we should never forget the past
So many memories that should always last
Oh, I could bring you the moon
Or, kiss you underneath a tarnished spoon
A silver blanket would wipe my tears away
But, is that really what you wanna hear me say?

A bunch of roses that I'll send
And a red brocade jacket if that makes any sense
A box of records on your shelf
I'll buy these for you from my mis-placed wealth
A silver blanket could brush my tears away
But, is that really what you wanna hear me say?

The sun shone on me today
And maybe that's the saddest thing to try and explain
Drank a cup of tea to ease the pain
And I thought of you, once again
A silver blanket could wash my tears away
But, is that really what you wanna hear me say?
Is that really what you want me to say?
Oh, is that really what you wanna hear me say?
Today or any day.

A silver blanket to wipe my tears away
A silver blanket that'll caress my face
A silver blanket to open up my days
Oh, hey, hey.

Kiss your life away
Kiss your tears away
I'll be back again
I'll be back again
I promise you of that
You can forget all the broken facts
The broken tears that too many times have been cried
When I touch you, touch you so deep inside
Like you touched me
Like you touched me
Like you touched me
Like you always will
Always…
