[Verse 1] She wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet was the night Softer than satin was the light From the stars [Verse 2] She wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet were her eyes Warmer than May her tender sighs Love was ours [Verse 3] Ours a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow Like a flame burning brightly But when she left gone was glow of [Verse 4] Blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm a memory Through the years [Outro] And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
