HARMONY BLOOMS, by Velvet Trip (2024)

1.

I was holding on, too scared to let this go.But, sometimes to grow you have to lose control.So we’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.I always wanted more than you could give.But you only had time for yourself.I’ve been waiting so long my heart has turned to stone.Oh, my brother, even stones roll on.We’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.Yeah, we’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on.I'll say I want it if you say you want it too.I'll say I want it if you say you want it too.We’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.We’re moving on to something better now.

Can we, pretend, if only for a second we weren’t turning backward?I’m tired, it’s only human,Call me back on Sunday, I’ll be waiting for you alone.Call me on Sunday, ill be waiting for you alone.It’s Only HumanIt’s Only HumanIt’s Only HumanIt’s Only HumanIt’s only human to fall to your knees and pray, to a god that has done you wrong.I’m only human, so I fell to my knees and I prayed for a love where I don’t belong,If I only had a moment to reflect, I’d close my eyes and breathe you in.Call me on Sunday, ill be waiting for you alone.I’m your lover.I’m your brother.I’m your friend.Have we lost our way?Have we lost our way again?It’s Only Human.It’s Only HumanIt’s Only HumanIt’s Only HumanIt’s Only Human

Creatures of the night have named their price.Careful what you wish for, cause you might, get more than you bargained for like my,time spent trying to keep you off of my mind.But I can’t get you off my mind.Get you off my mind.I can’t get you off my mind.Get you off my mind.It’s gonna take a second darling, but I’ll give it back to you soon.Give me all that you’ve got, cause we ain’t got much time to lose.Standing on a castle you can’t find,I’ve been, tryna to keep you off of my mind.So, what am I to do,if every waking moment I’m dreaming bout you?So, what am I to do?Cause I can’t, get you off my mind.Get you off my mind.Get you off my mind,get you off my mind.

Back again,It’s the same damn thing every time old friend.Wheres your shame?From the depths, you call my name.Fake it till you make it baby, I understand.But Real knows real so lets not pretend.The world will keep spinning without you man,Like a passing trend.Silly Boy, look what you have done.Silly Boy, you flew too close to the sun.Silly Boy, look what you have done.Silly BoyBack again, or so i heard through a friend of a friend.Wheres your shame?From the depths you call my name.Fake it till you make it baby, I understand.But Real knows real so lets not pretend.The world will keep spinning without you man,You’re a passing trend, back again.Silly Boy, look what you have done.Silly Boy, you flew too close to the sun.Silly Boy, look what you have done.Silly BoySuch a silly boy.You flew too close to the sun.Silly Boy, look what you have done.Silly Boy, you flew too close to the sun.Silly Boy, look what you have done.

Be on your way child and rise like the morning sun,harmony blooms into your mind.When harmony blooms inside,a colour that you can't describe,Don't use your eyes, just make love to the sky.It feels like,You’re born again it’s time.You’re beautiful, you’re magic, you're adorned in the divine. It looks like,Every time I close my eyes.Mr. uptight man and his business plan’s tryna buy my dollar for dime.It’s alright.It's alright.It's alright.It's alright.Don’t use your eyes,Just make love to the sky.Be on your way child and rise like the morning sun,harmony blooms into your mind.When harmony blooms inside,a colour that you can't describe,Don't use your eyes, just make love to the sky.Her harmony bloomed onto the dark side of the earth,And in the blink of an eye, it was over.Her harmony bloomed onto the dark side of the earth,And in the blink of an eye harmony was over.harmony bloomsharmony bloomsharmony bloomsharmony blooms

Look into the window of your mind.Hiding, seeking, searching for a sign.When I woke up, I was in a daze.So, I crept into the night.And as I gazed upon,the strange love of the mountains and the moons,I wondered if there’s more to life.Strange Love,Strange Love,Strange Love,Strange Love.So what if I told you,Love was already inside you?You don’t have to hide it, You don't have to fight it, no more.Strange Love.When you feel yourself dissolving into nothing more than the passing breeze,Give in to that moonlit promise.Ascend to the place where rivers rise to meet your waiting breath.And flow through your mouth, pouring in to fill your very self with softness, With moonglow, with tomorrow.Darling, we’re just bodies made of night reflected in water.We’re just rivers flowing towards each other's horizon.Wherever we are, we’re together, All adrift on the breeze.

7.

We’ve got to slow down, feel it out,All this running around.We’ve got to,slow down and talk things out.It’s like we always have,something to prove.I only have love to give you,Honest I do baby.Honest I do, my darling.I only have love to give you,Honest I do baby, you know that it's true.Times slipping by,She only brings me down.I’m gonna make it on my own, my baby.I believe that, honest I do.We’ve gotta breathe in and take our time,Stressin' out your mind.Slow down, talk things out.Let me tell you darling I got,something to prove.I only have love to give you,Honest I do baby.Honest I do, my darling.I only have love to give you,Honest I do baby,you know that it's true.Times slipping by,She only brings me down.Im gonna make it on my own.Im gonna make it darling.I believe that, honest I do.Times slipping by,She only brings me down.Im gonna make it on my own.Im gonna make it darling.I believe that, honest I do.

Electric dreams flowing through your mind,Nothing's quite as it seems.Step out of yourself, embrace the times.Am I wrong,Is it wrong, Am I wrong, if I feel alive?I’m alive.It’s the season to be kind.Surrender to the love, melt into desires. Cause we belong to the night.Your eyes start to feel heavy, Your mind is under my control.Now open up your eyes,and touch the sun again, the moon again,finally, you’re free to be again.Electric dreams flowing through your mind,Nothing's quite as it seems.Step out of yourself, embrace the times.Am I wrong,Is it wrong, Am I wrong, if I feel alive?I’m alive.Electric Dreams.

When true love dies, it haunts you.And when that light flickers out,it can change a man.But In your eyes, am I the damning, or the damned?Truly I can’t tell.Where you go, Ill follow you.Where you go, Ill follow you.Where you go, Ill follow you.Someone shoot me down,Before I let myself get carried away.So here I am, floating twelve feet off the ground.Watching you try and figure me out,So here I am.Where you go, Ill follow you.Where you go, Ill follow you.Where you go, Ill follow you.Ill follow you.Ill follow you.
