[Intro]
Red dress, discount perfume
High heels, low light
He thinks he knows the room
I already know his life
[Verse 1]
Gold card on the table
His watch says "old money"
He talks about his empire
I just taste that honey
Laugh soft at his stories
Draw circles on my glass
He thinks I'm getting dizzy
I'm just timing every pass
[Chorus]
I’m a velvet thief
Slipping through your fingers, baby
You can’t see beneath
All this sugar on my tongue
I’m a velvet thief
Stealing while I kiss you, maybe
You fund my little world
And you never know you’re gone
[Verse 2]
He asks about my childhood
I say, "It’s complicated"
Skip over the eviction
How the fridge stayed vacant
Mama at the sink crying
Little brother needs new shoes
So I learned how to dress danger
In a shade of baby blue
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
To you I’m just
Lip gloss and laughter
To me you’re just
Next chapter, next chapter
You buy the wine
I buy our time
You think it’s love
I call it keeping mine
[Chorus]
