Platinum Skies - Lyrics & Credits

 

There’s a snake in the Garden, little Evie

You’re gonna have to find another park!

There’s a rumour goin’ ‘round that you’ll be leaving.

The road is long and the night is dark.

 

Not her, not HER2!

Well I swear, she was standing right there, now she’s gone.

She flies like an angel to paradise,

But she dies like a soldier under Platinum Skies,….

That’s why she cries.

 

There’s some fruit in your belly Prosperina.

That fruit is sweet but the seeds are black!

It’s been since September that I’ve seen ya.

You’re going home but you’re coming back!

 

Not her, not HER2!

I swear she was dancing right there, now she’s gone.

She flies like an angel to paradise,

But she cries like a soldier under Platinum Skies,…..

That’s how she dies.

 

She shines like the setting sun,

Like Venus when the day is done.

She knows the recipe, the lay of the land;

She shares the news with everyone.

 

She shines like a setting sun,…Venus!

She knows she’s not the only one,…Venus!

She shines just like a setting sun,…Venus what have you done?

 

She shines like a setting sun,

Like Venus when the day is done.

She carries the message and the code for the plan:

 

A winding staircase.  A woman and a man.
