The clock’s been ticking slow, my dear, Each second whispers in my ear. The room's a shadow, low and wide, And time's a river we can't hide. Velvet in the rain, that's what you are, A tender gleam beneath the star. Oh, velvet in the rain, so soft, so near, You’re the only song I want to hear. The coffee’s cold, the wine’s gone warm, Outside's a sleepy thunderstorm. Your hand, it lingers, sweet and sly, A secret tucked beneath the sky. Do you feel it hum? That low and steady drum? Velvet in the rain, that's what you are, A tender gleam beneath the star. Oh, velvet in the rain, so soft, so near, You’re the only song I want to hear. Each drop’s a kiss, a rhythm divine, Tapping on glass like a metronome’s line. And oh, my love, as the clouds unwind, It’s you I find, it’s you I find.
