Velvet
Deep under the velvet
starlight flickers
& candles bicker over who gets to shine
Deep under the velvet
starlight flickers
& candles bicker over who gets to shine their light
Deep under the velvet
starlight flickers
& candles bicker over who gets to shine their light on you
Way beyond the reach of time
there's a place for hearts
like yours & mine
A place to be big
or belittle
the scrapes and tumbles made
While dipping into the drink
with a ladle made of dreams
and a body made to sink
Don't label this
until you've tried it
Don't label this
until you've sprung a leak
Deep down where you cant hide it
Deep down where you cant see
Deep down where there's no comfort (ing)
That's where (You'll find me) (I'll be)
Deep under the velvet
starlight flickers
and candles bicker
over who gets to shine their light, on you
