Cooper Hill Songtext
von Son of the Velvet Rat

Listen now darling
Listen, it′ll soon be gone
That sweet melody
Out there in the early dawn
It's way too delicate
For the light of day
When you open your eyes
It fades in the morning gray


You might say I′m a coward
But I think of myself as a clown
If I make people smile
Maybe they won't let me down
If I make people dance
They'll come to see me again
If I make them cry
They′ll stand by me in the rain

It′s a beautiful lie & a need
That you can't quite seem to satisfy
A beautiful lie & you bleed
& you can′t quite seem to figure why
But you try & you get by

On Copper Hill
Fill in the blanks in the sky
On Copper Hill

You can see the top of the hill

From down in the hole

There's something about the soul of a song

That you can′t control

It might want to kill you tonight

It might be your friend

& if it's a dream


It might come true in the end
