"The Chauffeur" lyrics - DEFTONES
Out on the tar plains
The glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me
So newly charming
Sweating dew drops glisten fresh in your side
[Chorus:]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart
Way down the lane away
Living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky
Towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
[Chorus:]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart
Sing, blue silver
At watching lovers part
I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes
With a word to stiffen brooding lies
But I only watch you leave me further behind
[Chorus:]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart
Sing, blue silver
Sing, sing, blue silver
