Patchwork G Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a custom-made afternoon
With shrinking hands, I can't keep to myself
Springtime, Saturday
Perfect in an easy way

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
And it's a customary sin
For angels in the dark
A lighter spark to brighten her skies

[Pre-Chorus]
Finger feelings, fingers feeling fine
Just might change this life of mine

[Chorus]
And I'm up on inspiration drive
If you could see what I've seen
Patchwork woman, sunshine suits you fine
Sleeping with her sandals on
In a California dream, I'm singing
"La-la-la-la, la-la, I think I'm up to something"

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
And on a custom-made afternoon the candle she burns
The wheels turn and four-eyes look away

[Pre-Chorus]
Wood is getting tangled up in steam
Blue and hazel mix to green

[Chorus]
And I'm up on inspiration drive
If you could see what I've seen
Patchwork woman, sunshine suits you fine
Perfect in an easy way
The world behind the worlds, I'm singing
"La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la"

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And I'm up on inspiration drive
If you could see what I've seen
Patchwork woman, sunshine suits you fine
Sleeping with her sandals on
In a California dream, I'm singing
"La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, I think I'm up to something"

How to Format Lyrics:
