You move like velvet in the rain
A burgundy drop of dusk slow-falling stain
So soft, rich, you wrap around
A hush beneath the loudest sound mess me up
Your love’s a brush of maroon tide
It paints my chest from deep inside
Like dusk that soaks the sky with you
You’re not a spark, you’re candle glow
A warmth that burns impossibly slow
A thread of gold through antique lace
You’re all the tones the night can keep
In silent hours, in velvet deep
And leave me drenched in indigo
You drip like paint on vintage silk,
A slow red tide in honeyed milk
Your name rolls off my tongue like wine
Too smooth to chase, too sharp to mine
You move like rivers dressed in brown
No splash, just sound pulls me down
I float inside your stream
asleep in your dream
Your love’s a brush of maroon tide
It paints my chest from deep inside
Like dusk that soaks the sky with you
You’re not a spark, you’re candle glow
A warmth that burns impossibly slow
A thread of gold through antique lace
You’re all the tones the night can keep
In silent hours, in velvet deep
And leave me drenched in indigo
Some colors stay just where they are
You’re all the dusk inside my veins
You’re not a spark, you’re candle glow
A warmth that burns impossibly slow
A thread of gold through antique lace
You’re all the tones the night can keep
In silent hours, in velvet deep
And leave me drenched in indigo
