Velvet moon

Verse 1:

I walked where the silence sleeps,

Through gardens of forgotten weeks.

The stars were soft, like whispered sins,

And time unravelled from my skin.

Pre-Chorus:

Every shadow knows my name,

They call me slow, they call me flame.

I float through dreams I never chose,

In velvet night where no one goes.

Chorus:

Velvet moon, take me higher,

Wrap my soul in silver fire.

I don’t need a world that speaks —

I bloom alone, where silence leaks.

Verse 2:

You touched my hand, then turned to smoke,

A fading thought, a broken joke.

But I still sing your phantom tune,

Beneath this cold and velvet moon.

Pre-Chorus + Chorus again

Bridge:

Tell the sky I won’t return,

I made my peace with things that burn.

If I must fall, I’ll fall like light,

Soft and strange into the night.

Final Chorus:

Velvet moon, don’t let me go,

I dance where only dreamers know.

No crown, no fame, no afternoon —

Just me and you, my velvet moon.
