You said my name like rain
On a glassy little lie
Your cufflink caught the candle
When you looked me in the eye
You smiled like velvet
Folded neat and black
I knew it was trouble
Still I pulled you back
And the room went quiet
When you touched my hand
Like you had a secret
You thought I'd understand
Velvet lies
Soft on my tongue
Velvet lies
And I was undone
Velvet lies
Stay with me now
Velvet lies
Until the last vow
Your coat still smells like bourbon
And a stranger's pale perfume
I left your number burning
Face down in the room
The piano kept on drifting
Through the smoke and idle signs
But every kiss you gave me
Had a stain of silver lines
And the room went quiet
When you touched my hand
Like you had a secret
You thought I'd understand
Velvet lies
Soft on my tongue
Velvet lies
And I was undone
Velvet lies
Stay with me now
Velvet lies
Until the last vow
Maybe I wanted pretty
More than I wanted true
Maybe I liked the danger
Of believing you
So play me one more measure
Let the midnight testify
I can hear the mercy
In a beautiful goodbye
Velvet lies
Soft on my tongue
Velvet lies
And I was undone
Velvet lies
Stay with me now
Velvet lies
Until the last vow
Velvet lies
Fade in the smoke
Velvet lies
And I let go
