Velvet Stranger

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She walked in like a fever dream Gold heels, green eyes, movie-screen I took one look and missed the floor Then she laughed and wanted more [Pre-Chorus] My mama said, “Hold your line” “Check that heart before you sign” But she spun me once so slow Now I don’t know, I don’t know [Chorus] Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?) Velvet stranger, pulling me through (pulling me through) She says my name like she owns the room But that girl can’t write my truth Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?) [Verse 2] She crossed the club in a silver blur Every head turned when she moved for her I heard the stories, I heard the laughs Still I fell for the moment fast [Pre-Chorus] My mama said, “Hold your line” “Don’t let charm rewrite your mind” But she smiled and shook her hair Now I’m standing there, standing there [Chorus] Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?) Velvet stranger, pulling me through (pulling me through) She says my name like she owns the room But that girl can’t write my truth Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?) [Bridge] Maybe she’s a spark, maybe I’m the flame Maybe I was reckless when I heard her name Still I see that grin when the band goes loud And the whole night tilts when she comes around [Chorus] Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?) Velvet stranger, pulling me through (pulling me through) She says my name like she owns the room But that girl can’t write my truth Velvet stranger, who are you? (who are you?)
