Blue velvet, ooh He wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet was the night Softer than satin was the light From the stars He wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet were his eyes Warmer than May his tender sighs Love was ours Ours, the love I held tightly Feeling the rapture grow Like a flame burning brightly But when he left Gone was the glow of Blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm the memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears He wore blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm the memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears.
