Blue Velvet lyrics

Verse 1

She wore blue velvet

Bluer than velvet was the night

Softer than satin was the light from the stars

She wore blue velvet

Verse 2

Bluer than velvet were her eyes

Warmer than May her tender sighs love was ours

Ours a love I held tightly

Feeling the rapture grow

Verse 3

Like a flame burning brightly

But when she left gone was the glow of Blue velvet

But in my heart there'll always be

Precious and warm a memory

Verse 4

Through the years

And I still can see blue velvet through my tears

She wore blue velvet

But in my heart there'll always be

Outro

Precious and warm a memory through the years

And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
