Velvet
with Jimmy Higgins
Your golden skin behind velvet ropes
Surpasses all my highest hopes
Sun's light embodied in you
Your presence alone too good to be true
Your absence is the darkest night
When all the stars forget to bloom
Return to me my candle bright
Illuminate my room
Your first hello unwound me at the seams
Your face a fixture in all my nightly dreams
Your voice alone walks me through my discontent
My pockets full of loving that I have never spent
Your absence is the darkest night
When all the stars forget to bloom
Return to me my candle bright
Illuminate my room
Illuminate my room
Back
