lyrics

Velvet Horses:

You don't know what love is
So how can you tell
You don't know what love is
That's just as well
You looked at me the other day
Like you'd feel so much better if I was empty space
But you don't know what love is
Call it something else

Velvet horses, heart of pine
How do you decide when to turn on the lights
As the sun goes down
Carbon cold and deadlocked doors
If I could howl like a Labrador
I'd call my baby, let me back in the house
But she don't know what love is

I take a walk, I run back home
I get so lonely when you leave me alone
And there's nowhere to go
Someone might hide behind a bottle of wine
Your favorite restaurant is dark inside
The theater flashes stories we already know

We don't know what love is
So how can you tell
You don't know what love is
That's just as well
You looked at me the other day
Like you'd feel so much better if I was empty space
But you don't know what love is
Call it something else
