She wore blue velvet Ours, a love I held tightly Like a flame burning brightly But when she left, gone was the glow Of blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm, a memory Through the years And we still can see blue velvet

When I stand in the way of what we could become Know that there's still way to everlasting love You became mine In the strangest time 'Cause baby I I wasn't right I was losing the fight And my mind

Draped in designer, I’m sticky as hell I can do bad on my own and good by myself I never needed no help I needed you niggas, you wasn’t right there If you need me, lil' nigga, I’m still gon' be here My vision was blurry and now I see clear You wouldn’t

There's nothing without love But one thing always stays the same Without love, there's nothing without love Nothing else feels right without love Nothing else but love can burn as bright She wasn't young, But she still a child There was innocence in her

In our hearts without chains Don't bring this love down I wish time was still We'd stay right here And if time was still Do you know that fever I know? With time to kill We'd have no fear Or scars to heal

Now I'm on the outside, oh oh I'll show you what it feels like We did everything right Now I'm on the outside Yourself was never enough for me Gotta be so strong There's a power in what you do Look at what you've done Stand still, falling away from me

Your sleeping heart You've been deep in a coma But I stood right here When you thought there was no one I was still right here You were scared, but I told ya Open up your eyes
