Some velvet morning when I'm straight

I'm gonna open up your gate

And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra

And how she gave me life

And how she made it in

Some velvet morning when I'm straight

Flowers growing on the hill

Dragonflies and daffodils

Learn from us very much

Look at us but do not touch

Phaedra is my name

Some velvet morning when I'm straight

I'm gonna open up your gate

And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra

And how she gave me life

And how she made it in

Some velvet morning when I'm straight

Flowers are the things we know

Secrets are the things we grow

Learn from us very much

Look at us but do not touch

Phaedra is my name

Some velvet morning when I'm straight

Flowers are the things we know

I'm gonna open up your gate

Secrets are the things we grow

And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra

Learn from us very much

And how she gave me life

Look at us but do not touch

and how she made it in

Phaedra is my name

Some velvet morning when I'm straight...
