Текст песни Blue Velvet Dress - Missy Higgins

Standing under the Sydney Harbour Bridge
Wearing my blue velvet dress, peach on my lips
Holding my black guitar like without it I might break
That's the night everything changed

Feeling your eyes behind each lens
Smiling so well no-one knows that it's pretend
I'd painted over every red streak down my face
That's the night everything changed

And I'm still stuck at New Years Eve 2021
It's killing me
Up there in my favourite blue velvet dress
Singing to strangers, my heart in shreds

Cos nobody knew that I'd just lost you

But holding white knuckles to the past
Like if I squeeze tight enough, it'll change it's path
Living like I never stepped down from that stage
Well, it's time something changed

Cos I've been stuck at New Years Eve 2021
And it's killing me
Still wearing that favourite blue velvet dress
Singing to strangers, my heart in shreds

But I'm seeing it now like I couldn't before
Blue velvet was the colour I wore

But I don't wanna wear this damn dress anymore
I'm zipping it down, I'm taking it off
I'm finding a new one, something sparkling and bright
Something for the future and not for that night

Cos I'm seeing it now
Like I couldn't before
That blue velvet ain't my colour no more
