Velvet Moon Over Black Lace

I slipped through the velvet door at midnight

Where the candles lean and the shadows smile

Every laugh in the room tastes like trouble

Every glance says, stay a while

The band plays soft like secret confession

Night heels keep time on the devil's floor

I can feel your eyes like a loaded question

And I want a little danger more

We're dancing in a haunted party

Where desire and danger wear the same disguise

One kiss could be a warning

One touch could hypnotize

We're dancing in a haunted party

To the brush of drums in the neon glow

If love is a ghost in the dark tonight

I'm the one who let it show

There's a mirror by the bar with a crack in it

It shows us ghosts with the strangest glow

Your hand on my waist feels like a wager

And I never say no

The organ breathes beneath the chandelier

The bass walks slow like a cat on a wire

Heavy whispered promise in the atmosphere

Spins me deeper into the fire

We're dancing in a haunted party

Where desire and danger wear the same disguise

One touch could be a warning

One touch could hypnotize

We're dancing in a haunted party

To the brush of drums and the neon lobe

If love is a ghost in the dark tonight

I'm the one who let you

Let the moonlight sign our names in silver

Let destiny remember what we dare

I'll wear your midnight like a perfume

And vanish in the stare

We're dancing in a haunted party

Where desire and danger wear the same disguise

One kiss could be a warning

One touch could hypnotize

We're dancing in a haunted party

As the night keeps singing our names in code

If the room bows cold at the final note

I'll still be holding you close
