Текст песни

The curtain is drawn and the parlor is dim
I’m wearing the velvet I purchased for him
The radio plays an old tune from the past
We knew that this magic was never to last.

Faded velvet, a glass of champagne
Waiting for lovers who never remain
The music is slow and the whiskey is neat
A bittersweet taste of a gentle defeat.

He smelled like tobacco and elegant gin
A beautiful trouble, a wonderful sin
I traded my heart for a moment of grace
And now I am tracing the lines of his face.

Faded velvet, a glass of champagne
Waiting for lovers who never remain
The music is slow and the whiskey is neat
A bittersweet taste of a gentle defeat.

Some people are made for the bright morning sun
But I only bloom when the daylight is done.

Faded velvet...
Never remain...
