Vanilla Honey

Does it make you feel better
With the bitter weather and your nana's knitted sweater?
I thought I was doing better at controlling my temper
I thought I was doing better at taking all the pressure
I'm not, but does it make you feel better
With the bitter weather and your nana's knitted sweater?
I thought I was doing better at controlling my temper
I forgot you were like a butterfly in the rain on a feather
And we fly, and we fly, and we fly away

But if I try and move slowly
Then my thoughts control me
And if I don't act quickly
I'll get left behind
And if I speak so softly
Then I don't see clearly
And I can say
Oh, my God, I gotta open up my mind
Open up, open up my mind

Vanilla honey, can you rise above me
And lace me with your lady loving, girl?
Ooh-ooh
Vanilla honey, can you rise above me
And lace me with your lady loving, girl?
La-la, lady

Lady loving, lady loving
Lady loving, lady loving, girl
Lady loving, lady loving
Lady loving, lady loving, girl

But does it make you feel better
In your fancy leather and your most fitted dress up?
I thought that I was better at taking all my leisure
I thought that I was slowly piecing myself back together
I am, but does it make you feel better
In your fancy leather and your most fitted dress up?
I thought that I was better at taking all my leisure
I forgot that I was doing better at holding my shit back together
And I hide, and I hide, and I hide away

But if I try and move slowly
Then my thoughts control me
And if I don't act quickly
I'll get left behind
And if I speak so softly
Then I don't see clearly
And I can say
Oh, my God, I gotta open up my mind
Open up, open up my mind

Vanilla honey, can you rise above me
And lace me with your lady loving, girl?
Ooh-ooh
Vanilla honey, can you rise above me
And lace me with your lady loving, girl?
La-la, lady

(Ooh)
Lady loving, lady loving
Lady loving, lady loving, girl
Lady loving, lady loving
Lady loving, lady loving, girl
Lady loving, lady loving
Lady loving, lady loving, girl
