lyrics

Shook Down Softly (Skaught)

What are we gonna do now?
The stars are cold and blue now
Shook down softly
Falling sweetly

All the peace in a cruel world
Are diamond smooth for you, girl

(chorus)
And I’m waiting, waiting
And you’re waiting, waiting
And I’m waiting, waiting
Let’s get undressed
Let’s get undressed

What are we gonna say now?
There’s no room left for words anyhow
Shook down softly
Tears dry quickly

Blinking hard in the new sun
With every knot of sleep undone

(chorus)

(bridge)
All we know is that storms fly and storms roll
All rattled and wild
All we know is that storms die and storms go
Let’s get undressed
Let’s get undressed
Come around, honey, it’s sweet when you’re coming around
Come around, honey, it’s sweet when you’re coming around
Come around, honey, it’s sweet
