[Intro] (Ooooh…) Salt on the windowpane… (Ooooh…) Your name in the radio rain… [Verse 1] You came in laughing through the carnival lights, Hair full of ocean and midsummer nights, The boardwalk shimmered under your shoes, Like the sea had painted itself for you. I said, “Darling, where’ve you been hiding so long?” You smiled like an old forgotten song, Tin heart jukebox spinning blue Now every wave comes back to you. [Pre-Chorus] Handclaps echo down the pier, Little ghosts of teenage years, And every gull above the tide Sounds like a choir in the sky… [Chorus] Oh, Velvet Tide, Carry us into the glowing night, Where the moon hangs low like a cinema light, And the world feels young again. Oh, Velvet Tide, Your eyes are two revolving skies, Every heartbeat swings and slides, Like surf guitars in summertime. (Whoa-oh-oh…) We were golden for a while… [Verse 2] The café girls in polaroid haze, Laughing through cigarette holiday days, Your fingers danced on the coffee glass, Like you already knew this wouldn’t last. And somewhere deep in the carousel sound, We lost the years we never found, Still your voice glows soft and slow Like AM radio after the show. [Pre-Chorus] Tambourines and motorbikes, Streetlamp halos burning bright, And all the kids beneath the pier Still believe the sky is near… [Chorus] Oh, Velvet Tide, Carry us into the glowing night, Where the moon hangs low like a cinema light, And the world feels young again. Oh, Velvet Tide, Your eyes are two revolving skies, Every heartbeat swings and slides, Like surf guitars in summertime. (Whoa-oh-oh…) We were golden for a while… [Bridge] If tomorrow fades like film… We’ll still dance beside the waves… Even shadows softly sing… When love survives in echoes… La-la-la-la… La-la-la-la… [Final Chorus] Oh, Velvet Tide, Pull us through the fading light, Where every lonely heart collides In sweet electric paradise. Oh, Velvet Tide, The summer never really dies, It just sleeps behind our eyes, Waiting for the songs to rise… (Whoa-oh-oh…) Velvet Tide… (Whoa-oh-oh…) Young forever for tonight… [Outro] Salt on the windowpane… Your name in the radio rain… (Ooooh…) Velvet Tide…
