[Intro] (Whispered)
You never really left…
You just learned how to haunt me…
[Verse 1]
Black silk curtains, moonlight on your skin,
Every time I close my eyes, you’re pulling me back in.
Your perfume lingers where the silence sleeps,
Like a secret that my soul was never meant to keep.
You move through my mind like smoke through the room,
A beautiful disaster dressed in midnight bloom.
I reach for your touch, but you’re fading away,
Leaving only echoes where your heartbeat stayed.
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why your shadow knows my name…
Why every dream still ends the same…
You’re gone, but you’re everywhere I go…
My velvet ghost.
[Chorus]
You’re my velvet ghost…
Soft as heaven, cold as smoke.
Every kiss still burns beneath my skin,
Even though you’ll never love me again.
You’re my velvet ghost…
Dancing through the dark alone.
Every midnight brings you back to life…
Just long enough to ruin mine.
[Verse 2]
The city’s asleep, but my mind won’t rest,
Every empty street still leads back to what’s left.
Your lipstick’s gone, but the stain remains,
Like a scar hidden underneath designer chains.
I built these walls from broken trust,
Covered every crack with gold and dust.
Still your voice cuts through the quiet air,
Like you never stopped being there.
[Bridge] (Atmospheric)
If I let you go…
Who would haunt these nights?
If I forget your face…
Who am I without the fight?
Maybe some loves…
Don’t disappear…
They just become ghosts.
[Final Chorus]
You’re my velvet ghost…
Beautiful enough to break my soul.
Every heartbeat echoes your goodbye,
Every memory refuses to die.
You’re my velvet ghost…
The only home I’ve ever known.
So if forever lives inside the dark…
I’ll meet you there…
After midnight.
⸻
[Outro] (Breathy whispers)
You were never mine…
But somehow…
You never left.
VAYNE
