Velvet Night Air (Version 2)

Verse 1

Velvet night air slips between my shoulders

Pulse in the floor is a slow drum call

City holds its breath and waits for us

Fingers brush against yours in the dark

Something opens up where we stand

Your shadow moves like it has a mind of its own

I don't know how to turn this back around

Only how far into you I'll fall

The rhythm pulls me where it wants me to be

Pre-Chorus

Every step brings us closer still

Nothing left but this and your eyes

Hold on tight, let the beat take control of our hands

Chorus

Velvet night air, carry us away

Where does this end and we begin?

Lost in the sound, gone with the tide

We're just two hearts hiding in the dark tonight

Verse 2

Your hand finds mine through the noise and smoke

Together we melt into one frame

Every step I take brings you closer still

I lose myself where your fingers find my skin

Sweat on your neck, a low spark of light

You're all that exists beyond this wall

The music swallows every thought in its path

Pre-Chorus

Every step brings us closer still

Nothing left but this and your eyes

Hold on tight, let the beat take control of our hands

Chorus

Velvet night air, carry us away

Where does this end and we begin?

Lost in the sound, gone with the tide

We're just two hearts hiding in the dark tonight

Bridge

No names

Just breath and heat and skin

Only one place I ever want to be
