Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars
[Verse 2]
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May, her tender sighs
Lover was ours
[Verse 3]
Ours, a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
Like a flame burning brightly
But when she left, gone was the glow
[Verse 4]
Of blue velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm, a memory through the years
And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
[Verse 5]
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
