She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars
.
She wore blue velvet
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
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
Through the years
And we still can see blue velvet
Through our tears
.
Ours, a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
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
Through the years
And we still can see blue velvet
Through our tears
