Verse 1
City lights melt into liquid gold,
Your silhouette cuts through the dashboard glow.
Every green light whispers, don’t slow down,
Every heartbeat says we’re too far gone now.
Your voice is velvet in the midnight air,
One look and every warning disappears.
We wear temptation like a second skin,
The road unfolds and quietly lets us in.
Pre-Chorus
No destination. No alibi.
Just your reflection in these tired eyes.
The further we run, the less we pretend…
We’re chasing a feeling that never ends.
Chorus
First you’re velvet on my tongue,
Then you’re lightning in my blood.
Every mile pulls me deeper in,
Like gravity dressed up as a sin.
Sweet enough to steal my breath,
Strong enough to blur what’s left.
If this is wrong, don’t wake me up…
Keep me lost inside your love.
Drop
Velvet…
Lightning…
Velvet…
Lightning in my blood.
Verse 2
The windows catch a thousand violet stars,
We’re outrunning all the people that we are.
You laugh and suddenly the night ignites,
Like striking every match at the same time.
The city’s fading in the rear-view glass,
We’re letting every doubt dissolve and pass.
No promises. No morning guarantees.
Just your pulse beating somewhere underneath me.
Bridge
If dawn finds us, let it wonder where we’ve been.
Leave our names tangled in the wind.
Some highs fade before the sunrise…
Yours still burns behind my eyes.
Final Chorus
First you’re velvet on my tongue,
Then you’re lightning in my blood.
Every heartbeat wants another hit,
Every silence begs for one more kiss.
We’re the spark before the flame,
Two lost souls with perfect aim.
When the night’s got nothing left to prove…
I’ll still be taking every road to you.
Outro
Streetlights disappear behind us.
The engine hums.
Your hand finds mine.
The city sleeps…
But our pulse never does.
