Lyric

Velvet Afterglow

Nocturne Echo

The glass still holds your trace

In the hush you left behind

My dress keeps your perfume

Like a secret in the seam

Moonlight on the table

Dimmer now, but still alive

I can feel the room remember

How your hands once held the night

And the candles burned down low

But they didn't take the flame

Something tender stayed with me

When you stepped into the rain

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

Still on my skin

Still in my bones

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

The night is gone

But you're not gone

The piano in the corner

Sings a note I can't release

Every shadow on the carpet

Looks like mercy, looks like peace

I fold the quiet slowly

Like a letter I won't send

And I wear the last soft shimmer

Of the way we might have been

Now the street is washing clean

And the sky is turning gray

Still a ribbon of your warmth

Will not fade away

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

Still on my skin

Still in my bones

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

The night is gone

But you're not gone

Let the dawn come softly

Let it find me standing here

With the last warm golden thread

Wrapped around my disappearing fear

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

Still on my skin

Still in my bones

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

The night is gone

But you're not gone

Velvet afterglow

Velvet afterglow

I keep the spark

I keep it close
