[Verse 1] White linen Slow breathing Candle halos on the wall Silver forks Quiet talking You’re the loudest thing of all Menu open I’m not reading Just tracing letters on your hand Tiny laugh Lipstick coffee Somehow everything feels planned [Chorus] It’s an upscale Valentine But I just want your time Forget the names on the wine list I’m already light from your eyes All this velvet All this shine I only taste you on my mind In this quiet little corner You’re my favorite overpriced night [Verse 2] Soft piano Low Murakami Left behind on the chair You spin the ring On your finger Ask me what I’m doing here I say “Saving Every second Like a tip I can’t afford” You tilt your head Steal my napkin Write your name beside the course [Chorus] It’s an upscale Valentine But I just want your time Forget the names on the wine list I’m already light from your eyes All this velvet All this shine I only taste you on my mind In this quiet little corner You’re my favorite overpriced night [Bridge] Waiter pours a memory Ruby in the glass (oh) Bill comes like a plot twist We both just laugh We step past marble floors Back into the cold But your hand in my pocket Feels richer than gold [Chorus] It’s an upscale Valentine And I still want your time Let the city keep its diamonds I’m staying right here in your eyes All this velvet All this shine I’ll remember when we’re broke sometime How a quiet little corner Turned a Tuesday into life
