Velvet Voices — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



Ill play upon my violin

Until the mountains ring

Of lonely laughter blindly thrown

And cause an endless sark of strings

The skies are sad

Theyre dancin to a silent symphony

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singing





The hall is filled to every corner

By a tinkling hint of chimes

A melody careens and crumbles

Leaving just a trace behind

A rhythm [palter and] faintly fails

The silver on its wings

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singing





The cymbals flash, the drums they crash

The trumpets rise the song

The brass beton plucks its diamonds

From a glittering wall of almost dawn

The crystal chords they slash the wind

In humble majesty

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singing
