Blue Velvet Lyrics

by Tony Bennett

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e55905-tony_bennett~blue_velvet_lyrics.html ]
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than may her tender sighs
Love was ours

Ours, a love I held tightly
Feeling 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 we still can see blue velvet
Through our tears
