Engine hums a lullaby, low and sweet
Drifting through the asteroid field, we take our seat
The radar sweeps a quiet green, no danger near
Just the silence of the void, crystal clear
Gravity feels lighter when you're close to me
A tiny island in this endless galaxy
Your head upon my shoulder, heavy with the day
Watching comets burn and fade away
Velvet moonlight, painting up the glass
Don't let this moment pass, don't let it pass
If I could freeze the universe, hold the stars in line
I'd keep this quiet peace, make it yours and mine
Oh, velvet moonlight, wrap us in your glow
Nowhere else we need to go
Stardust on the window pane, glittering bright
A billion miles from morning, deep inside the night
The navigation chart can wait, the course is set
This is the calmest storm we've ever met
Time is just a number flickering on the screen
You're the only reality I've ever seen
Breathing in the rhythm of the cosmic tide
Safe and sound right here inside
Velvet moonlight, painting up the glass
Don't let this moment pass, don't let it pass
If I could freeze the universe, hold the stars in line
I'd keep this quiet peace, make it yours and mine
Oh, velvet moonlight, wrap us in your glow
Nowhere else we need to go
Let the planets spin without us for a while
Just the starlight and the shadow of your smile
Floating in this zero-G embrace
Lost in love and lost in space
Velvet moonlight, painting up the glass
Don't let this moment pass, don't let it pass
If I could freeze the universe, hold the stars in line
I'd keep this quiet peace, make it yours and mine
Just stay...
Under the velvet moonlight...
Stop the time...
