Blue Velvet

I wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet was the night Softer than satin was the light From the stars I wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet were my eyes Warmer than may my tender sighs Love was ours Ours the love I held tightly Feelings 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 a memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears Blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm a memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears --- Blue Velvet - Brenda Lee
