velvet keys

Keys drip honey, melting on my tongue Heart a cracked vinyl, love a song unsung Cigarette smoke curling, ghost of your laugh Moonlight on the windowsill, frozen photograph [Chorus] You and me, we a slow dance in a dream Soft whispers, unraveling the seams Velvet keys play the love I couldn’t say A melody stuck on replay, replay [Verse 2] Piano notes fall like rain on my skin Each drop a reminder of where we’ve been Your smile a museum, every piece a shrine My soul a canvas, painted by your spine [Prechorus] But time’s a thief, stole the chords we wrote Left echoes, a hollow, a lump in my throat [Chorus] You and me, we a slow dance in a dream Soft whispers, unraveling the seams Velvet keys play the love I couldn’t say A melody stuck on replay, replay [Bridge] I trace the cracks in the keys, feel the ache Each note a tear in the songs we’d make Piano dusted in memories, heavy and true Every chord a confession, written for you
