A song about temptation wrapped in elegance, and love that feels like a beautiful crime.
“Velvet Alibi” blends moody neo-soul with late-night noir, telling the story of a lover too smooth to resist and too dangerous to hold. With sultry lyrics and rich atmospheric textures, this track captures that blurry line between desire and regret—where seduction becomes survival. Perfect for dim lights, slow dances, and secrets never spoken.


Velvet Alibi

[Verse 1]
You showed up like a warning
In a suit of smoke and sin
With lips that told the story
Of where the night had been
Your hands knew all my secrets
Before I said a word
And I let them trace my silence
Till my conscience barely stirred

[Chorus]
You're my velvet alibi—
Soft to touch, too sharp to hold
Whispered lies in satin tones
That made the silence bold
You never asked permission
And I never asked you why
Just wrapped myself in danger
And called it love tonight

[Verse 2]
The moon played voyeur through the blinds
As your jacket hit the floor
We danced on glass and borrowed time
Like we'd done this all before
You said, "This won’t mean nothing,"
But your eyes betrayed the truth
'Cause broken hearts don’t speak so soft
Unless they've something left to lose

[Bridge]
We live in echoes, not tomorrows
Drunk on what we shouldn’t taste
Trading rules for fleeting sorrows
Falling slow, then gone in haste
You're not mine and I’m not yours
But we both know how to lie
And sometimes that’s enough to fill
The hours we can't deny

[Final Chorus]
You're my velvet alibi—
A crime I choose to keep
A name I whisper in the dark
When I’m too far in to sleep
We’re both just sins in human skin
Dressed in truth we can't untie
But for one more stolen evening
You're still my velvet alibi
