Sweet Vanilla
Walkin’ the line
I’ve been spending time
On the blind side of elation
Whiling away on a clear blue day
Reeling inside desperation
There’s the lost, there’s the lucky ones
There’s all of the spaces between
Anyone’s call where the chips may fall
Till the night time brings on a dream
Sorrow can change to the sweetest thing
And the heartache goes away
Sweet Vanilla, my umbrella
The voodoo you do stops the rain
What I do is think of you
She make me high with the lowest sigh
Resigning to anticipation
Back from the rain of a hurricane
From destruction to rejuvenation
Over the top till my poor heart stops
On the line between pleasure and pain
Stumble about, beat my senses out
Til it all becomes clearer again
Sorrow can change to the sweetest thing
And the heartache goes away
Sweet Vanilla, my umbrella
The voodoo you do stops the rain
What I do is think of you
All the songbirds sing
Vanilla come out to play
Sorrow can change to the sweetest thing
And the heartache goes away
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Sweet Vanilla, my umbrella
The voodoo you do stops the rain
What I do is think of you
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh Hoo Hoo
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Do do do do do yeah yeah
