Long Black Scarf Songtext
von Belle and Sebastian

It came my way
On a lonesome day
The long black scarf took my possession
Valentino′s own
Passed down from the throne
With powers to use with discretion

Through hallowed hall
Through streetlight stroll
Through winter snow, the scarf's a-flying


He can feel salvation coming around
This time he knows it exists
The instant cool
The sexual appeal of a handsome romantic that no girl could resist
Around my neck I slowly felt
The noose of innocence, it was tightening
You got all that you thought you wanted
And now there′s ice in your heart

You kissed the girls
You notched them up
You said goodbye
You figured it out
You learned the game
You're not the same

Icy drift, a solar eclipse
Who can tell your story?
Long black scarf, put it on
Bound for love
Bound for glory

Ta, da, da, da, da, da, da
Ta, da, da, da, do, do, do, ooh
