She wore blue velvet,
bluer than velvet was
the night
Softer than satin was
the light from the stars
She wore blue velvet,
bluer than velvet were
her eyes
Warmer than May her
tender sighs love was
ours
Ours a love I held
tightly feeling the
rapture grow
Like a flame burning
brightly but when she
left, gone was the glow
of
Blue velvet, but in my
heart there'll always be
Precious and warm, a
memory through the years
And I still can see blue
velvet through my tears
She wore blue velvet but
in my heart there'll
always be
Precious and warm, a
memory through the years
And I still can see blue
velvet through my tears
