Velvet Evening Song

(Tempo: Slow, acoustic, with a gentle steel guitar and light piano accompaniment.)

(Verse 1)

The porch light is low, just a spill of the moon,

No need for the bright lights to get here too soon.

I changed out of denim, put silk on my skin,

The hardest part of my day is where your touch begins.

I didn’t need glitter, or heels for the show,

I just needed you and this soft, quiet glow.

(Chorus)

'Cause my armor is off and my heart is undone,

This slow, easy sweetness is where I have run.

I’m letting down all the walls that used to be tall,

And trusting your hands to catch me when I fall.

This ain't rhinestone country, just simple and deep,

I’m perfectly beautiful in the promises you keep.

(Outro)

Oh, baby, you know...

(Steel guitar fades out slowly)

...this velvet evening is all mine, all mine.

Would you like a few suggestions for a beautiful female country artist who might sing this?
