The light is dimmed and so is your lookYou can’t ignore what’s coming in your arms Everything is broken in this old room
We must erase the evidence of this crimeA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skin A velvet ribbon
To tie your love to mine and
A velvet ribbon
Keep a memory through timeBodies exhausted
Sweat on your skin
I can see the shivers beading like waves on her I think we found our common ground
We can’t ignore that love is in our armsA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skinA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skin A velvet ribbon
To tie your love to mine and
A velvet ribbon
Keep a memory through time

Be it as it may we are alone
Found ourselves in trouble on the telephone
Having sweet talk with another

When you overheard
Found ourselves making up
Before we'd learnt

Say it to me you don't believe it's true
We can be ourselves even when we're on the move
Tell me straight if you believe the same
Or you're not allowed *show me

We are playing
At being strangers

How are we to keep it from your family
There'll be trouble when we tell them and they disagree
They can put the squeeze on the way we feel
Wrap it up and make us a raw deal

Pre-hook
*tell me
