Seven Veils Lyrics - A Song Is A City - Eskimo Joe

She gets grumpy when she doesn't come 

She says, "Hey boy you got all the fun" 

Then she comes over 

With the flowers in her hand 

She gets clumsy when she's all alone 

I say "baby, there's some things you just don't know" 

Then she comes over 

And puts her hand upon her heart and says 

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils 

Oohh there are only four to fall away 

She gets jealous 

And asks me "Who was she" 

I say "Patience" and put a kiss upon her cheek 

Then she comes over 

And says, "The two of us should never part" 

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils 

Oohh there are only four to fall away 

He's the one whose questions go unanswered most the time 

Words 

Words to keep from falling from her mouth 

Even though she was a mirror in her-own time 

That wasn't her 

You know she was a spy 

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils 

Oohh there are only four to fall away 

No I won't be coming home this year 

Now watch them fall away
