Status Quo — Black Veils of Melancholy

If I see you hiding in the night by a peppercorn tree The tree it moves, lets me see what I wanna see A poison gaze of your mind is all that's worrying me The pictures that I see are seen by no-one else but me To cause the night to be in sight, a little point of me I imagine nearly anything I want to see Black veils of melancholy falling on me Black veils keep shadowing my mind Black veils that make my mind seem small Black veils of melancholy falling on me Black veils keep shadowing my mind Black veils that make my mind seem small I see you with my eyes closed getting closer and closer to me I open my eyes up and you're not there It's all in my mind Black veils of melancholy falling on me Black veils keep shadowing my mind Black veils that make my mind seem small Black veils of melancholy falling on me Black veils keep shadowing my mind Black veils that make my mind seem small
