Black Velvet (feat. Layla Ku)

Black velvet

Clinging to your skin you got me melting

Slow and steady I’m dripping

Before I met you

I stayed inside on summer days

I let you lead me

Cause I thought you were the way

When you walked through the door

I thought you would look back

So I stared at my phone

Cause I thought you would call back

I’m visible till l you don’t wanna see me

In blankets entwined, I just want you to feel me

So tell me something I don’t know

the golden hour just approached

I see you for what you are

You wind me up then take it slow

Thrown into this fork in road

No map, no compass, no direction

Black velvet

Clinging to your skin you got me melting

Slow and steady I’m dripping

Before I met you

I stayed inside on summer days

I let you lead me

Cause I thought you were the way

Now I’m scolding my heart for how fast it attaches

Only piece of you left is a box of your matches

I’m burning time since you left me with embers

And that’s all my poor little brain can remember

Yes I can write till I’m bleedin’

I’ve forgotten how to think

My time is my only friend

You’ll grab your shit and you’ll pack light

Board your lonely one-way flight

Leaving me to burn, in the west end

Black velvet

Clinging to my skin, I gotchu melting

Slow and steady your dripping

Before you met me

You stayed inside on summer days

I let you lead me

Cause I thought you were the way

Black velvet

Clinging to my skin, I gotchu melting

Slow and steady your dripping

Before you met me

You stayed inside on summer days

I let you lead me

Cause I thought you were the way
