Violet - Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire

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
