The sun has set, the moon is near
Everything is finally clear
The sky is changing, deep and wide
With nothing left for me to hide
A velvet curtain, soft and blue
Falling over me and you
The streetlights flicker, one by one
Now the heavy day is done
The orange glow has turned to gray
Watching the colors drift away
I’m breathing in the cooling air
Finding peace that’s everywhere
Oh, velvet dusk, a soft embrace
Finding my rhythm in this place
Just a gentle rhythm, staying low
Letting the heavy moments go
Deepest purple, calm and clear
I’m perfectly at home right here
The cafe’s quiet, the lights are dim
Letting the midnight feelings in
My shadow’s long upon the wall
I don’t mind the dark at all
A silver spoon, a porcelain plate
It’s not too early, not too late
Every second is a gift to hold
In a world of violet and gold
Don't turn on the light... just stay
In the ending of the day
No loud voices, no heavy ground
Just the silence that I’ve found
Oh, velvet dusk, a soft embrace
Finding my rhythm in this place
Just a gentle rhythm, staying low
Letting the heavy moments go
Velvet dusk... turning deep...
Promises I intend to keep...
Softly now... softly stay...
