Velvet Door Ajar
by Dj Lewis
Lyrics
Verse 1
Behind the velvet door
The world goes soft and small
Elizabeth by the fire
Sophia answers the call
She reaches for the sheets
With hands that tremble sweet
And Sophia leans in close
Like rain on hidden streets
Pre-Chorus
Come nearer, love
Stay here with me
Let the night be ours
Just you and me
Chorus
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
My secret in the dark
My only tender spark
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
I wear my heart so near
When you are here
Verse 2
She traces every sigh
Like lace along the skin
Sophia crawls back slowly
And pulls the silence in
Elizabeth follows close
With eyes like golden wine
Two hearts in borrowed time
Two names in one design
Pre-Chorus
Come nearer, love
Stay here with me
Let the night be ours
Just you and me
Chorus
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
My secret in the dark
My only tender spark
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
I wear my heart so near
When you are here
Bridge
If dawn should steal the room
I'll keep you in my prayer
A crown can hide a smile
But not the way I care
So come, my gentle one
Lay down beside my name
In this small room of ours
I'll love you just the same
Chorus
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
My secret in the dark
My only tender spark
Sophia, stay with me
Sophia, stay with me
I wear my heart so near
When you are here
