Flight

I walk the line where shadows sway
Under velvet skies that bleed the day
Your silhouette hums a soft ballet
Lighting up the night in a jazzy bouquet
Fingers trace through smoky air
Chasing dreams that disappear somewhere
Guitar strings whisper secrets rare
Carving love in hearts laid bare
Oh velvet skies hold me close tonight
Wrap me tight in your golden light
Let the music drip slow through the fight
In your arms I’ll make it
I’ll take flight
A melody drips like honey pure
Leaning into rhythm I’m not so sure
The song it stings I need its cure
This aching soul I’m trying to reassure
The clock is slipping away so sly
But let’s freeze time beneath these highs
The warmth of your laughter colors the sky
Our love's a tune that’ll never die
Oh velvet skies hold me close tonight
Wrap me tight in your golden light
Let the music drip slow through the fight
In your arms I’ll make it
I’ll take flight
