She wore blue vel-vet.
Blu-er than vel-vet was the night.
Soft-er than sat-in
was the light from the stars.
She wore blue vel-vet.
Blu-er than vel-vet were her eyes,
Warm-er than May her ten-der sighs.
Warm-er than May her ten-der sighs.
Love was ours.
Ours a love I held tight-ly,
feel-ing the rap-ture grow,
Like a flame burn-ing bright-ly,
but when she left, gone was the glow
Of blue vel-vet,
But in my heart there'll al-ways be
prec-ious and warm
a mem-o-ry through the years.
And I still can see blue vel-vet
And I still can see blue vel-vet
through my tears.
