Millie's Lyrics

Your shoes were blue velvet

And you were soft on me

Lourdes was playing "Shadow of Your Smile"

And we were in four drinks each

I get embarrassed to dance in public

But you brought the courage out of me

I moved like I was a bronze Giacometti

Till eventually my tensions ceased

And that's all it took

Someone kind finally

The morning after we went down to Millie's

And you ordered the club sandwich

There was a palpable ease to the scene we set

We were two fall leaves swaying in the wind

Is this what it feels like to not stress or fear?

A second floor apartment with a green love seat

A moment in time with some excess money

And a person beside me even when that's not the story

That's all it took

Someone kind finally
