[Intro] Late cab hum Streetlights blur into wine Your coat on my lap Your hand over mine (mm) [Verse 1] You laugh in the dark, eyes half closed Lipstick on the rim of my glass Tell me you hate going slow But you love when the night drifts past Bare feet on the dash, soft gold Your hair on my cheek, loose waves We got nowhere to be, I’m told But your pulse keeps picking up pace [Chorus] Velvet overdrive You and I, you and I Rushing while we barely move Slow touch in a speeding room Velvet overdrive Breathing in your sweet reply Every little glance so smooth You’re the only thing in view (oh) [Verse 2] Your voice like a record, low-fi Cracking all my careful controls You trace little maps on my thigh Drawing every way we could go You say, “This is reckless, I know” Then you lean in and make it worse If this is a crash in slow-mo Let me feel every frame, every word [Chorus] Velvet overdrive You and I, you and I Rushing while we barely move Slow touch in a speeding room Velvet overdrive Breathing in your sweet reply Every little glance so smooth You’re the only thing in view [Bridge] Lay back Let the skyline slide We’re right On that hazy line Too fast For a heart at rest Too soft To ever confess (mm, say it) [Chorus] Velvet overdrive You and I, you and I Rushing while we barely move Slow touch in a speeding room Velvet overdrive Breathing in your sweet reply Keep us in this lazy groove Till the morning cuts through [Outro] Last turn home Still chasing time One more loop Of your hand in mine
