Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Male)
City lights fading into yesterday, baby,
Just a golden halo brushing all these walls.
I’ve been starving for this quiet all day,
Waiting for these velvet curtains here to fall.
Hold your "I love you" right on the edge of your tongue,
We’ve been talking since the early morning light.
Just let this 808 be the heartbeat now,
And let the whole wide world… just… fade from sight.
[Chorus]
(Female)
Caught in the velvet, yeah, I’m sinking in deep,
With secrets that only two a.m. can ever keep.
Do you hear that sax line crying? That’s my soul for you.
I’m drowning in this honey, baby,
I’m drowning in this midnight blue.
(Duet)
Only me and you,
Lost inside the blue.
[Verse 2]
(Female)
Look at our shadows… moving smoke across the room,
In the amber shimmer of a single flame.
I can feel the rhythm of your breathing there,
Every time my name rolls off your lips like rain.
(Male)
It’s that slow burn, magic from the 90s glow,
Something timeless that’s been waking up for us.
There is nowhere in this universe, girl,
More sacred than this space with both of us.
[Bridge]
(Duet)
Our bodies slide through the rising heat, steam over you,
Talking in silence as we pull each other close.
(Male) Whisper in my ear now, baby, soft and low.
(Female) Every breath, every word makes my whole heart glow.
(Male) In this velvet night, I’m forgetting my name.
(Duet)
I’ve got your velvet momentum etched into my skin,
You’re drifting through the shadows like a host drawing me in.
From the heat of every moment to the dreams we’ve yet to see,
You’re the ache of the violin,
And you’re the heavy, heavy drum in me.
[Chorus]
(Duet)
Caught in the velvet (so smooth), sinking in deep,
With secrets that only the night can truly keep.
With a sax that’s softly sighing and a heart for us two,
I’m losing my mind, I’m losing my truth,
In this midnight blue.
Only me and you,
Lost inside the blue.
[Outro]
(Female)
Now we’re slipping past the surface where the blue is thick and sweet,
Tracing hidden stories where the soul and marrow meet.
(Male)
On a canvas in this dim light, tasting salt and tasting wine,
Don’t you move an inch now, baby… stay against mine.
(Female)
Let the record keep on spinning, let it drift and play.
(Male)
Every touch… a drop of rain.
(Female)
Every pulse… a holy stain.
(Male)
Blue looks so good on you…
(Female)
Blue on your skin… that’s all I ever want.
(Male)
City lights fading into yesterday, baby,
Just a golden halo brushing all these walls.
I’ve been starving for this quiet all day,
Waiting for these velvet curtains here to fall.
Hold your "I love you" right on the edge of your tongue,
We’ve been talking since the early morning light.
Just let this 808 be the heartbeat now,
And let the whole wide world… just… fade from sight.
[Chorus]

With secrets that only two a.m. can ever keep.

I’m drowning in this midnight blue.
