Velvet Skies
I don't even know your name
But I love the way you lie
Under these velvet skies
Mirror, mirror on the wall you got me so damn hypnotised
Feeding me all your lies
Woah, my lady, remember when you left me for dead?
Don't you care?
Maybe you never did
Lately it'd be better if you write me that song
What if we had it all
Just for the night
Under these velvet skies
Woah, maybe it'd be better if you write
Give me one reason why I should let you in tonight
I'm weak from time to time
Great breaker of the chain, don't steal my will to fight
Go ahead, take all my pride
Woah, my lady, remember when you left me for dead?
Don't you care?
Maybe you never did
So, lately it'd be better if you write me that song
What if we had it all
Just for the night
Under these velvet skies
Woah, maybe it'd be better if you write
We were so enlisted
When life was predictable
And I had the means to make you smile
Now I pray that your dependence
Like that poor Egyptian boy
Is drowned by the River Nile
I will always love you
But please don't kid yourself
I won't wait all my life
So, come on, kill me softly
With the absence of your words
And the happiness in your eyes
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
But I love the way you lie
Under these velvet skies
Mirror, mirror on the wall you got me so damn hypnotised
Feeding me all your lies
Woah, my lady, remember when you left me for dead?
Don't you care?
Maybe you never did
Lately it'd be better if you write me that song
What if we had it all
Just for the night
Under these velvet skies
Woah, maybe it'd be better if you write
Give me one reason why I should let you in tonight
I'm weak from time to time
Great breaker of the chain, don't steal my will to fight
Go ahead, take all my pride
Woah, my lady, remember when you left me for dead?
Don't you care?
Maybe you never did
So, lately it'd be better if you write me that song
What if we had it all
Just for the night
Under these velvet skies
Woah, maybe it'd be better if you write
We were so enlisted
When life was predictable
And I had the means to make you smile
Now I pray that your dependence
Like that poor Egyptian boy
Is drowned by the River Nile
I will always love you
But please don't kid yourself
I won't wait all my life
So, come on, kill me softly
With the absence of your words
And the happiness in your eyes
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
What if we had it all just for the night?
