Velvet Echoes in G Minor

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain blurs the neon light
End of a lonely night
The stars are out of sight
Everything feels just right
In this dim corner of the night
[Verse]
Amber swirls in my hand
Shadows across the stand
Music from a distant land
The trio’s final command
Playing just like we planned
[Chorus]
Oh, that velvet swing
The joy it used to bring
Hear the silver ring
Let the memories cling
To every little thing
While the night birds sing
[Post-Chorus]
Just a ghost in the smoke
A joke that we once spoke
Before the promise broke
And the silence awoke
[Verse]
Your hand upon my waist
A ghost I haven't faced
With bittersweet aftertaste
Love that was never replaced
By the years in their haste
[Bridge]
The clock strikes half-past two
I’m still here seeking you
Thinking of all we knew
In shades of smoky blue
Waiting for the morning dew
[Hook]
Brandy and the rain
Softly numbing the pain
In this quiet lane
Until we meet again
Inside this rhythmic strain
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Oh, that velvet swing
The joy it used to bring
Hear the silver ring
Let the memories cling
To every little thing
While the night birds sing
[Verse]
The streetlights start to dim
I hum a quiet hymn
A glass filled to the brim
Following a fading whim
On a memory’s slim limb
[Verse]
The barman clears the tray
The colors turn to gray
I have nothing left to say
Except to dream the night away
And hope you're doing okay
[Break]
[Hook]
Brandy and the rain
Softly numbing the pain
In this quiet lane
Until we meet again
Inside this rhythmic strain
[Outro]
