Her skin is like velvet   Her face cut from stone   Her eyes when she's smiling   Will never reach home   But hear how she sings      Her touch would be tender   Her lips would be warm   But when we're together   I'm always alone   But hear how she sings      Her skin is like velvet   So I went to her home   Her place like a palace   With things you can't own      Her skin is like velvet   But hear how she sings   But hear how she sings
