Velvet Ring (2023 Remaster)

Chilled in the kitchen of a city tomb

The light would flicker like a violent womb

The night was thicker than a smoky fume

Eliza waited in her room

♪

Ben, he loved her like he loved no one

The way she laughed and held a smoking gun

The way she always said "What's done is done"

And he is not the only one

♪

Love is a gentle thing

Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

♪

A victim here with a sharp, sharp blade

And Ben, he knew how she was getting paid

Her water broke and they would have to wait

♪

And when he knew that she was fooling

He faced the mirror to avoid the thing

We're out of money and we've sold the bling

And I just wanna take you home

I just wanna take you home

♪

Love is a gentle thing

Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

♪

And I'm wondering

Ring

And I'm wondering
