Текст песни
Pour the vintage wine and dim the light
We have nowhere else to go tonight
The world outside is rushing in a race
But here we move at quite a different pace
The shadows dance across the wooden floor
I lock the bolt upon the heavy door
Let the telephone ring, let it ring
I don't want to hear a single thing
Except the beating of your heart
A work of art
Behind the velvet curtains, we hide
Safe from the rising and the falling tide
A sanctuary made for only two
And all I see, my darling, is you
Soft jazz playing low on the radio
Time is moving sweet and slow
Behind the velvet curtains.
The linen tablecloth is white and clean
You look like someone from a movie scene
The candle flickers in your hazel eyes
No need for secrets and no need for lies
The conversation flows like summer rain
Washing away the stress and the pain
Let the telephone ring, let it ring
I don't want to hear a single thing
Behind the velvet curtains, we hide
Safe from the rising and the falling tide
A sanctuary made for only two
And all I see, my darling, is you
Close the curtains tight.
Stay the night.
Velvet night.
