0035 Velvet Scratch

(ooh) Easy now, let it roll in slow

I came in quiet with the lamp light low Shoes by the

door and the record on gold Hand on the table,

I tap that time Small little truth in a half-made rhyme You

read the room and you lean my way Nothing too loud,

just enough to stay I like the space where the backbeat bends

Loose on the tongue like a note that ends Hold me in

the pocket

Keep it sweet and plain

Leave a little

breathing room

Let it fall like rain

Low light, warm night,

stay with me Slow ride,

talk right, move with me

No rush, no fight,

just let it be

You and I

sitting deep in the groove Low light,

warm night,

stay with me

Soft line, all time,

truth in me You laugh through your teeth and the glass rings

clear A little more brave when the midnight nears I tell you

a story in two bar turns About what I keep and the

way it burns Not a big speech,

just a careful flame You say my name like a softer frame

We let the organ color the air And leave all the heavy

outside somewhere (ooh)

Take it down to the grain (ahh)

Say it close, say my name

Low light, warm night,

stay with me

Slow ride, talk right,

move with me

No rush, no fight,

just let it be

You and I

sitting deep in the groove Low light,

warm night, stay with me Soft line,

all time, truth in me

Stay with me

(ooh) Move with me
