Velvet Of The Night

The hot beating sun has finally set Beneath the edge of my town The heavy air, the dusty sweat Is finally cooling down The heating sun has left the hill The sun that burned the colours grey And everything grows still And wash the heat away It's the cool, kind velvet of the night And the silver rain is falling light In the stillness, I can actually breathe It’s a quiet grace, it's a soft release And in the night, a rhythmic beat The rain is falling, and my heart is light It washes clean the tired streets I'm whole again inside the night It's the cool, kind velvet of the night And the silver rain is falling light In the stillness, I can actually breathe It’s a quiet grace, it's a soft release My spirit wakes as colours fade Into this holy, healing shade It's the cool, kind velvet of the night And the silver rain is falling light In the stillness, I can actually breathe It’s a quiet grace, it's a soft release It's the cool, kind velvet of the night And the silver rain is falling light In the stillness, I can actually breathe It’s a quiet grace, it's a soft release
