My girl white in a yellow light
Looks so good
And it takes me
Love so bright she can love all night
Shows me all she knows

Painter paint the scene
Hold us in a dream
Feel what it means
When she takes me
Oh, she plays her part
Holds me in her heart
Knows from the start

She can take me
And she takes me
And I go

When I'm bound in the london ground
Play this song
It'll take you
Say her love was a velvet glove
Held my life through

See us in the morning sun
How the colors run

Steven Lawrence Winwood is most famous for his solo work, including two number one hits Higher Love and Roll with It, and for being the member of two supergroups, Traffic and Blind Faith, along with helping found the Spencer Davis Group at fourteen years old.

Speaking of which, Mozart had nothing on Winwood as a keyboard

As a boy in middle school, little Stevie Winwood played the Hammond synth for Blues gods and Rock & Roll founders like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley, when they toured in Britain. We’d list more, but it’s exhausting to link all of those names.
