Blue Velvet

She wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet was the night Softer than satin was the light From her eyes She wore blue velvet And as the night danced slowly by Warmer than May her tender sighs Love was ours Ours, the love we held tightly Feeling the rapture grow Like a flame burning brightly But when she'd gone, gone was the glow of Blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm a memory through the years And I still can see blue velvet through my tears I still can see blue velvet through my tears
