Veiled in Grey (2021 Remaster)

It's in a stony glare

It's up the creaky stairway

We sat in the wicker chair

You know the one we used to share

And it's just the kind of thing that we don't talk about anymore

Remember when your sister was young

And it's just the kind of thing that she don't talk about anymore

I'll bet you wouldn't believe me

If I whispered in your ear and said

I can see a pink elephant

And it's standing on the corner of the bed

I'll bet you wouldn't believe me

If I whispered in your ear and said

I can see a pink elephant

And it's standing on the corner of the bed

You'll just smile and roll your eyes to the back of your head

You'll just smile and roll your eyes to the back of your head

Yeah you'll just smile and roll your eyes to the back of your head

Yeah you'll just smile and roll your eyes to the back of your
