歌詞

Soft shadow, silver thread

Tonight is kind to the bruised

A steady hush in the skin of the air

And every hurt gets room to move

I came in with the weight of the week

Bent collar, quiet strain

The room turned slow, like a candleless hymn

Still, something sweet stayed in the rain

Your voice was a low river line

Curving through the static haze

You left a little color on the edge of my night

And it changed the shape of my days

So let the distance thin

Let the locked-door spin

I can feel that hidden pulse begin

When your name turns into a wind

Velvet tides, carry us

Velvet tides, cover us

If the world gets sharp

We can turn back soft

Velvet tides, carry us

By midday the corridors bite

And every promise gets tested

Some hearts move heavy as iron birds

Some dreams come back half-rested

I keep my calm in a copper line

Where the troubled hours pass

You are the balm in a crowded room

And the quiet inside the glass

So let the pressure fall

Let the hard edges stall

I can feel that hidden pulse begin

When your name turns into a call

Velvet tides, carry us

Velvet tides, cover us

If the world gets sharp

We can turn back soft

Velvet tides, carry us

When the evening leans in blue

And the sky goes velvet-bright

I trade my stiff old armor

For a pulse that feels alive

Even the restless seams

Can become a softer seam

If we move like two slow rivers

Through the narrow part of the dream

A little light in the ribs

A little hush in the blood

The hard day loosens its grip

And the whole room turns to mud

In the long arc of the week

There are corners made of ache

But your touch is a patient language

That can soothe what others break

I don’t need thunder to stay

I don’t need the sky to bend

I just need that steady return

When your warmth comes back again

So let the distance thin

Let the locked-door spin

I can feel that hidden pulse begin

When your name turns into a wind

Velvet tides, carry us

Velvet tides, cover us

If the world gets sharp

We can turn back soft

Velvet tides, carry us

Carry us

Cover us

Turn the hard to hush

Velvet tides

Stay with us

Stay with us
