Velvet On My Mind

[Verse 1]

You walk in

Whole room tilts a little to the side

Gold ring

Tracing on the rim of your glass

Slow line

I laugh

You already know the joke in my mind

We crash

Into conversation like we got time

[Pre-Chorus]

Who taught you

How to look straight through me like that

Two heartbeats

Talking under all of this chat

You say

"Maybe"

I say

"Baby

Take your time"

We already crossed that line

[Chorus]

Got your velvet on my mind

Can’t shake you off

Can’t press rewind

Every word you say just slides

Over me like red wine

Got your velvet on my mind

In the daylight

In the late night

I’ve been running through that first time

Over

Over

Over

Velvet on my mind (oh yeah)

You say you’re close

Ask if you can come through

Door swings

You in my hoodie and that half-smile too

One kiss

And all my careful plans fall through

[Pre-Chorus]

Who told us

We were supposed to play it this cool

Your hands

Writing little stories on me like school

You say

"Easy"

I say

"I been trying to hide"

You already read my lines

[Chorus]

Got your velvet on my mind

Can’t shake you off

Can’t press rewind

Every word you say just slides

Over me like red wine

Got your velvet on my mind

In the daylight

In the late night

I’ve been running through that first time

Over

Over

Over

Velvet on my mind (yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]

Every time I think I’m fine

You pull me right back

Right back

Circle on repeat

That line

I like it like that

Like that (hey!)

If this is just a phase

I’m lying

I don’t wanna go back

Go back

[Chorus]

Got your velvet on my mind

Can’t shake you off

Can’t press rewind

Every word you say just slides

Over me like red wine

Got your velvet on my mind

In the daylight

In the late night

Got your velvet on my mind

In the daylight

In the late night

I’ve been running through that first time

Over

Over

Over

Velvet on my mind
