In a Mellow Time Songtext
von Oscar Peterson

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
In a tomb... in bloom
Down in a hole and I dont know if I can be saved
See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You dont understand who they
Thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who wont let himself be
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, losin control
Id like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied
Down in a hole and theyve put all
The stones in their place
Ive eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty


Of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more
Of my feelings beneath
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, losin control
Id like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied
Bury me softly in this womb
Oh I want to be inside of you
I give this part of me for you
Oh I want to be inside of you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers (oh I want to be inside of you)
In a tomb... in bloom
Oh I want to be inside...
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, feeling so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, out of control
Id like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied
