No Saints in Velvet (Remastered)
[Intro] Velvet, velvet No saints in velvet Velvet, velvet No prayers after dark [Verse 1] We came in late through the garden gate With our boots still wet from the storm The portraits stared like they had a prayer But we were never built to conform A silver laugh, a crooked spell A secret under the tongue They told us girls should behave themselves So naturally, we came undone [Pre-Chorus] Velvet on the collar Fire in the hem If they call us trouble We will answer them [Chorus] There are no saints in velvet No angels after dark We kiss the edge of midnight And leave curses where we park No saints in velvet No halos, no regret If you hear us laughing You are already in the hex [Verse 2] We wrote our names on the chapel wall In ink that would not dry The candles bent when we walked in Like even flames knew how to lie One girl smiled, one girl bit One girl stole the moon The old boys said we were dangerous We said, darling, you noticed too soon [Pre-Chorus] Velvet on the collar Fire in the hem If they call us wicked We will bloom for them [Chorus] There are no saints in velvet No angels after dark We kiss the edge of midnight And leave curses where we park No saints in velvet No halos, no regret If you hear us laughing You are already in the hex [Bridge] Lock the doors Hide the wine Count your sons We are doing fine Break the rules Ring the bell Pretty girls Can raise hell [Violin Break] Velvet, velvet No saints in velvet Velvet, velvet No prayers after dark [Final Chorus] There are no saints in velvet No angels after dark We dance beneath the warning signs And set fire to the spark No saints in velvet No halos, no regret If you hear us singing You are already in the hex [Outro] Velvet lips Velvet knives Midnight girls Ruined lives Velvet, velvet No saints in velvet Velvet, velvet You are already in the hex
