Deep in the Velvet Room

[Verse 1]

Ashtray glow

Lipstick on a glass

Same old song

Spinning way too fast

Coat on a chair

But you never come through that door

I keep talking to your shadow

On this sticky hardwood floor

[Chorus]

Deep in the velvet room

Your name hangs in the smoke

I pour another truth

In every line I choke

If loving you was wrong

I paid it

Broke in two

Deep in the velvet room

There’s still a chair for you

[Verse 2]

Closed my tab

But I still sit here

Piano man

Knows every tear

He plays that chord

That sounds like your goodbye

Deep in the velvet room

Your name hangs in the smoke

I pour another truth

In every line I choke

If loving you was wrong

I paid it

Broke in two

Deep in the velvet room

There’s still a chair for you

[Bridge]

You said “baby

I’ll be back”

Left your ring by the sugar pack

Now that silver circle burns my hand

I trace it on the table

Like I still believe your plans

[Chorus]

Deep in the velvet room

Your name hangs in the smoke

I pour another truth

In every line I choke

If loving you was wrong

I paid it

Broke in two

Deep in the velvet room

There’s still a chair for you
