Scarlet's Walk
Lyrics

 

Amber Waves

Well he lit you up like amber waves in his movie show
He fixed you up real good till I don't know you anymore
From ballet class to a lap dance
Straight to video
And the pool side news was that he would be launching you

Into every young man's bedroom
You gave it up on DVD and magazine
You gave it up
A private rite of passage
You gave it up to every boy's sweet dream
With their paper cuts

You said he's got a healing machine
It glows in the dark
Glows in the dark
You say there's not a lot of me left anymore
Just leave it alone
But if you're by and you have the time
Tell the Northern Lights to keep shining
Lately it seems like they're drowning

He could light you up and summon every swan to the Lakeside
Off to Cabo San Lucas for some optical stimulus
Then you started to guess there was someone else
Though His flint glass seeing all of you immersed in his sepia

Into every young man's bedroom
You gave it up on DVD and magazine
You gave it up
A private rite of passage
You gave it up to every boy's sweet dream
With their paper cuts

You said he's got a healing machine
It glows in the dark
Glows in the dark
You say there's not a lot of me left anymore
Just leave it alone
But if you're by and you have the time
Tell the Northern Lights to keep shining
Lately it seems like they're drowning

So I went by cause I had the time
And told the Northern Lights to keep shining
They told me to tell you they're waving
