In a Mellow Tone-Oscar Peterson

Bury me softly in this womb I give this part of me for you Sand rains down and here I sit Holding rare flowers In a tomb... in bloom Down in a hole and I dont know if I can be saved See my heart I decorate it like a grave You dont understand who they Thought I was supposed to be Look at me now a man Who wont let himself be Down in a hole, losin my soul Down in a hole, losin control Id like to fly, But my wings have been so denied Down in a hole and theyve put all The stones in their place Ive eaten the sun so my tongue Has been burned of the taste I have been guilty Of kicking myself in the teeth I will speak no more Of my feelings beneath Down in a hole, losin my soul Down in a hole, losin control Id like to fly but my Wings have been so denied Bury me softly in this womb Oh I want to be inside of you I give this part of me for you Oh I want to be inside of you Sand rains down and here I sit Holding rare flowers (oh I want to be inside of you) In a tomb... in bloom Oh I want to be inside... Down in a hole, losin my soul Down in a hole, feeling so small Down in a hole, losin my soul Down in a hole, out of control Id like to fly but my Wings have been so denied
