Velvet Rendezvous (Electro-Swing)

Velvet Rendezvous (Electro-Swing) - HotPotMusic

Oh, velvet rendezvous,
Tried to catch him with a wink or two
The room kept spinning tales untrue
He never saw the spark she drew
Oh velvet rendezvous,
Her heart wore pearls he never knew
She played her cards, a queen askew
But love had picked another smile

Feathered hat, she crossed the floor
Cherry lips he can’t ignore
Stockings high, her gaze a plan
But his eyes trailed someone else’s hand

He lit a match with careless ease
She bit her lips, a subtle tease
The chandelier caught her regret
He hadn't even noticed yet

Every glance a losing game
She whispered low and called his name

Oh, velvet rendezvous,
Tried to catch him with a wink or two
The room kept spinning tales untrue
He never saw the spark she drew
Oh velvet rendezvous,
Her heart wore pearls he never knew
She played her cards, a queen askew
But love had picked another

Smoke curled in a careless twirl
She poured her charms, a vintage swirl
A tap on glass, a frozen smile
He leaned toward her... just for a while

But laughter bloomed across the way
He drifted back without delay
She raised a brow, composed, refined
Yet felt the sting behind her spine

Her hopes stitched into satin seams
Lost between two jazz-swept dreams

Oh, velvet rendezvous,
Tried to catch him with a wink or two
The room kept spinning tales untrue
He never saw the spark she drew
Oh velvet rendezvous,
Her heart wore pearls he never knew
She played her cards, a queen askew
But love had picked another

She twirled her straw, then struck a pose
He glanced again—but quickly froze
The other girl had caught his hand
While our dame watched from her bandstand

She laughed too loud, just once, then stopped
His gaze returned—then quickly dropped
A paper heart inside her clutch
Remained untouched, untouched too much

A trumpet sang, the tables swayed
She spun alone, but smiled and stayed
Her perfume trailed across the floor
He’d missed a muse worth longing for

By closing time, the lights went low
She tipped her hat, began to go
A final glance, he turned too late
The door had closed. So sealed her fate

She turned to toast a glass alone
The crowd a blur, the trumpets blown
A man like that, a fleeting game
She understand her fate and try to forget his name

Oh, velvet rendezvous,
Curtains fall but grace breaks through
Though she lost what felt so new
She danced away with something true
Oh velvet rendezvous,
She swayed alone beneath the blue
The night moved on, but she still knew
She was the spark he never knew
