متن آهنگ Dark and Velvet Nights از David Gilmour

I didn't think that this could be All that unto death do we 'Til you managed the lock and magicked the key After a night of hard drinking and ecstasy It's softer than words that are spoken Blackened on paper that's shredded and torn Or carved into stones lying shattered and broken Branches beckoned along the wrong path Winding up in the past And this dark and velvet night that surrounds us This dark and velvet night, I will wrap around us It's softer than words that are spoken Or painted as slogans and flung to the lions Written on slips as the punters wait smoking A leap of faith, the odds sky-high Said goodbye to your place or mine Don't like to make promises that I can't keep Don't want to hurt this old heart or wreck my sleep Thinking how will we part? Will I hold your hand or you be left holding mine? Between this breath and then There's this airlock of time This airlock of time And this dark and velvet night that surrounds us This dark and velvet night, I will wrap around us It's softer than words that were spoken In the towers of great cities that toppled and drowned Engraved on gold rings or some other love token No walls, no bells to sanctify this dark and velvet night ♪
