Lyrics Violet - Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire

Violet

I hear you made a scene, then vanished in the night
Got high on Glasgow Green, then suddenly took fright
Were you lost or just looking
You spent your evenings disconnected, out-of-sync
We tried to reach you, but your mind was on the blink
Were you lost or just looking
Violet, it was deadly in your glow
Violet, you forgot to let us know
Now your mother’s waiting for your safe return
Are you ever coming home, she’s so concerned
Now your mother’s waiting for your safe return
Are you ever coming home, she’s so concerned
Are you lost or just looking
Did the frost get its hook in
Violet, it was deadly in your glow
Violet, you forgot to let us know
And you used to hide from the boys outside who cooed and crowed
And you said you cried at the second side of Abbey Road
And you used to hide from the boys outside who cooed and crowed
And you said you cried at the second side of Abbey Road
I’m so sorry that I didn’t know you well
I’m so sorry that I couldn’t break the spell
I’m so sorry that I didn’t know you well
Violet, I’m not sure I ever will
