[Verse] I slipped through the door, a shadow in lace, The band hit a groove, oh, the bass embraced. Champagne whispers in a room so dim, Secrets waltz where the lights grow slim. [Prechorus] Glances dart like a gambler’s game, Who holds the cards, who fans the flame? [Chorus] Behind velvet curtains, where the whispers hum, The night’s a puzzle, and I’m the sum. Behind velvet curtains, every heart’s undone, Swing to the shadows, the mischief’s begun. [Verse 2] The trumpets tease, oh, they flirt and sway, My heels tap secrets the floor can’t betray. A wink, a smile, a coy little spin, Every move’s a gamble, and I’m all in. [Prechorus] Dice roll smooth, the stakes are steep, Who's playing for keeps, who's losing sleep? [Chorus] Behind velvet curtains, where the whispers hum, The night’s a puzzle, and I’m the sum. Behind velvet curtains, every heart’s undone, Swing to the shadows, the mischief’s begun.
