Francy explores the intersection between intimacy and fire — a velvet flame that burns softly beneath the surface.
Improvised at the piano, the piece captures a private moment of emotional surrender, where tenderness and passion flow together without words.
Every pause, touch, and silence becomes part of a secret dialogue between desire and vulnerability.
This track belongs to the concept Velvet Flames, a reflection on the sensual and instinctive side of human connection.

Genre: Contemporary Piano / Cinematic Impression
Mood: Intimate, Warm, Reflective, Seductive
