Velvet Skies

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Cherry light on the boulevard, You smiled like a movie star. Summer smoke, forgotten names, We were dancing through the flames. Your ring left marks in my palm, Like a promise in the dark. I still hear that last goodbye When the train pulled through the yard. [Pre-Chorus] I keep your shadow in my mind, Like an old photograph in time. Every dream still leads to you, Even when the sky turns blue. [Chorus] Under velvet skies we fade, Two lost hearts in a masquerade. (under velvet skies) If forever was a crime, I'd steal your love a thousand times. Golden tears and midnight wine, You're the echo in my life. (echo in my life) Even if the world moves on, I still hold on, I still hold on. [Verse 2] Your name still lives in the glass, In the half of every laugh. Neon rain on empty steps, I wear your ghost in my chest. I tried to learn how to move, But my feet keep missing you. Every road I thought was mine Turns and circles back to June. [Pre-Chorus] I keep your shadow in my mind, Like an old photograph in time. Every dream still leads to you, Even when the sky turns blue. [Chorus] Under velvet skies we fade, Two lost hearts in a masquerade. (under velvet skies) If forever was a crime, I'd steal your love a thousand times. Golden tears and midnight wine, You're the echo in my life. (echo in my life) Even if the world moves on, I still hold on, I still hold on. [Bridge] If you come back, come back slow, Let the broken window glow. One more dance, one last flame, Say my name, say my name. [Final Chorus] Under velvet skies we fade, Two lost hearts in a masquerade. (under velvet skies) If forever was a crime, I'd steal your love a thousand times. Golden tears and midnight wine, You're the echo in my life. (echo in my life) Even if the world moves on, I still hold on, I still hold on.
