Some Velvet Morning
by Lee Hazlewood

Some velvet mornin when Im straight
Im gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Some velvet mornin when Im straight

Flowers growing on a hill, dragonflies and daffodils
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name

Some velvet mornin when Im straight
Im gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Some velvet mornin when Im straight

Flowers are the things we know, secrets are the things we
grow
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name

Some velvet mornin when Im straight
Flowers growing on a hill
Im gonna open up your gate
dragonflies and daffodils
And maybe tell you bout Phaedra
Learn from us very much
And how she gave me life
look at us but do not touch
FADE
And how she made it end

TRANSCRIBERS NOTE: In Greek mythology, Phaedra was a
daughter of Minos
who married Theseus and fell in love with her
