Velvet Hours

[Intro]
[Verse]
Moonlight hits the floor
I don't want no more
Than this quiet space
Traces of your face
Glass is half-full now
Wondering just how
We got to this place
[Pre-Chorus]
Your thumb on my jaw
The softest thing I saw
Should I let you in?
Where do we begin?
[Chorus]
In the velvet hours
Losing all my powers
Sipping on the doubt
What's this all about?
Do I keep it light?
Or hold on real tight?
Through the velvet hours
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, the velvet hours
Higher than the towers
Just you and me
Wait and see
[Breakdown]
(Wurlitzer solo with sub-bass warble)
[Verse]
Scent of your cologne
Leave me all alone
With these heavy thoughts
Tying me in knots
You didn't rush the vibe
Hard to even describe
The way you look at me
[Pre-Chorus]
Your thumb on my jaw
The softest thing I saw
Should I let you in?
Where do we begin?
[Chorus]
In the velvet hours
Losing all my powers
Sipping on the doubt
What's this all about?
Do I keep it light?
Or hold on real tight?
Through the velvet hours
[Bridge]
Casual was the plan
Then you took my hand
Now the walls are thin
Let the truth begin
I’m afraid to fall
But I want it all
[Hook]
Slow sip, slow burn
Wait for my turn
Slow sip, slow burn
Lessons I learn
Slow sip, slow burn
Everything I earn
[Chorus]
In the velvet hours
Losing all my powers
Sipping on the doubt
What's this all about?
Do I keep it light?
Or hold on real tight?
Through the velvet hours
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, the velvet hours
Higher than the towers
Just you and me
Wait and see
[Outro]
