Velvet Days you make your little way

Pouring rain make that face

You make my little day

I laugh till my heart drops down deep

You break your little freak

We break don't we break don't we

Blush and knock your knees

That's your girl breathing

I laugh till my heart stops

Hold your shark skin thing

That's your boy breathing

I laugh till my heart stops

Blush and breathe

I laugh till I can't see

Down deep you break your little creep

I laugh

Velvet Days you make your little way

Pouring rain make that face

You make my little day

I laugh till my heart drops down deep

You break your little freak

We break don't we break don't we

Listen blush and breathe

That's your soul kissing

I Laugh
