Lord Velvet

Here we are
Trapped in this never changing time loop
Remember the days
The beaucoup times you made my heart melt

But that was so long ago
Those muggy summer nights on the streetcar
And every time I look at my phone
I wonder where you are
Should I go up, should I go down
I don't see your face around here anymore, no

And I know, that I ain't above you
And I'm just waiting in the queue
I can hear the brass band calling
It's time for me to head on inside

Because I'm here
Help me wash away my fear
Turn on the light
Have the band come in on stage right
You know my love can be rented (rented)
And you know that I can be so tempted (tempted)
I can be there in a minute and honey (ooo)
You can call me Lord Velvet, yeah yeah, you can call me Lord Velvet

Now I have seen all the stars there up high
On the avenue (ooo)
And the first time that I saw you
You were sweet as honeydew, yeah (what it do, what it do, what it do)

Another road, another town
I could turn this car around but it ain't right (ain't right)
And though my name's on that marquee
I can almost guarantee
That your sweet magnolia trees are on my mind

I know, that ain't above you
I'm just waiting in the queue
I can hear the brass band calling
It's time for me to head on inside

Because I'm here
Help me wash away my fear
Turn on the light
Have the band come in on stage right
You know my love can rented (rented)
And you know, I can be so tempted (tempted)
I can be there in a minute and honey (ooo)
You can call me Lord Velvet, yeah

Your fruit cage has got me blinded
And you know, I can't hide it
So open up the door it's time for me to head on inside

Because I'm here
I can wash away your fear
Turn off the lights
And put that record on the flip-side
'Cause you know my love can be rented (rented)
And you know, that I can be so tempted (tempted)
And I can finish in a minute and honey
You can call me Lord Velvet

You can call me Lord Velvet, yeah
Oh come on baby
Call me anytime
