Tell your mother that you walked all night on velvet green.
And the long grass blows in the evening cool
and August's rare delight may be April's fool.
But think not of that, my love,
I'm tight against the seam
and I'm growing up to meet you down on velvet green.
Now I may tell you that it's love and not just lust
and if we live the lie, let's lie in trust
on golden daffodils, to catch the silver stream
that washes out the wild oat seed on velvet green.
We'll dream as lovers under the stars
of civilizations raging afar.
And the ragged dawn breaks on your battle scars,
as you walk home cold and alone upon velvet green.
(Jethro Tull, Velvet Green)
Post break-up sex, that makes you forget your ex.
What did you expect, from post break-up sex?
(The Vaccines, Post Break-up Sex)
