Blue Velvet
Drowning in Blue Velvet: A Neon Love Tale by Georgia Vannewkirk
Lyrics
You were bathed in neon lights
You were surrounded by vibrant neon lights.
Catching glimpses as they hit you just right
Noticing fleeting moments when the lights illuminated you perfectly.
I asked you where you'd been
I inquired about your whereabouts.
Can I be your champagne won't you drink me in
Expressing a desire to be significant in your life, using "champagne" metaphorically, asking to be embraced.
We drove into the night
We traveled through the darkness.
The reflection of the city in your eyes
The city reflected in your eyes, indicating a connection with the urban environment.
You asked if I would stay
You inquired if I would remain with you.
Take a risk on you and give my love away
Asking for commitment, taking a chance on love by giving it away.
Soft, soft as blue velvet, blue velvet
Describing the softness, possibly vulnerability, akin to blue velvet.
And I'm lost, lost in blue velvet, blue velvet
Feeling lost within the metaphorical fabric of blue velvet.
We watched the sun fade into waves
Observing the sunset together, falling into a deep connection with no apparent way out.
And I fell into you with no escape
Falling deeply in love without an escape route.
Oh I wish that I could've stayed
Expressing a desire to prolong the moment, wishing to stay.
Forever in that lilac daze
Desiring to remain in a dreamlike state of love, described as a "lilac daze."
Soft, soft as blue velvet, blue velvet
Reiterating the softness and vulnerability, comparing it to blue velvet.
And I'm lost, lost in blue velvet, blue velvet
Continuing the feeling of being lost within the metaphorical fabric of blue velvet.
Soft, soft as blue velvet, blue velvet
Repeating the description of softness and vulnerability in the context of blue velvet.
And I'm lost, lost in blue velvet, blue velvet
Reiterating the sense of being lost within the metaphorical fabric of blue velvet.
