Johnny Tillotson - Blue Velvet lyrics

She wore blue velvet bluer than velvet was the night

Softer than satin was the light from the stars

She wore blue velvet bluer than velvet were her eyes

Warmer than May her tender sighs love was ours

Ours the love I held tightly feelings the rapture grow

Like a flame burning brightly but when she left gone was the glow

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

She wore 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
