Velvet & Lace




Velvet and lace
Really got me remembering things
I never thought I was capable
Of a love so inescapable
But I’m here now
As light dims love flares
We’ve been letting our eyes race upstairs
Limiting our breathing
Trying to find a reason
To keep you from leaving

But I couldn’t even
Persuade you at all
Drowning all my sorrows in tomorrow’s alcohol
In keeping with the season
I’m already falling
The opposite of balling
I’ve got nothing in my wallet
Feeling like I must be lost
Been waiting ages for our paths to cross
Fate’s dealt me a hand that I can’t stand

Baby, I don’t need reminding
Bought ourselves some perfect timing
You know best and so do I that
I can’t go if I keep finding
Velvet and lace

Really got me remembering things
I never thought I was capable
Of a love so inescapable
But I’m here now, I’m here now
I’m here now, I’m here now
I’m here now, I’m here now
I’m here now, I’m here now

Where are you?
I’m here now, I’m here now

But this is a real life
This aint a movie
We’re talking real time
Just like it should be, could be, would be
Just have to love me
For what it was that you said at the party
When we departed
You’d like to see me again
Let’s get it started
‘cause I’m a hopeful hope filled artist
Both my hands above my head
Calling the starry night filled sky

There’s no denying
Got to help me save face
With velvet and lace
Velvet and lace
Velvet and lace
Velvet and lace
Velvet and lace

Baby, I don’t need reminding
Bought ourselves some perfect timing
You know best and so do I
That love ain’t always on our side

Where are you?
