Description
Another gentle love song - I'd better try something different next time! I'm interested in some feedback on a couple of things. First, I had some drum loops in but thought they sounded too artificial so I deleted them. If there any drummers who feel they could add something interesting, please let me know!
Also, I copied the guitar solo, pasted it into a new track, moved it slightly off the beat and gave it a different tone from the first guitar, just to fill the sound out. Now I'm not sure if it would have been better left alone. Any comments would be appreciated.
Apart from that, I hope you enjoy the song!
The photo (taken by my wife, Gaby) is of a sunset at the beach near Wonthaggi, Victoria, Australia. A sky like velvet.

Lyrics
Like Velvet
She comes into the room like velvet
As silent as the mist of frosty nights
She makes no fuss to hide her own misgivings
I understand her many wrongs and rights
She’s near me when I’m in the depths of sadness
And truth is smiling as I see her by
She’ll never try to answer hopeless questions
She’s too entwined to ask the reason why
She’s there when autumn’s colours splash the daybreak
When leaves are falling gently to their home
When the streams are gliding through their pastures
And when we sit and watch the sunset all alone
Could anything be deeper than her wisdom?
Is there anything as warm as she is now?
And when she finds some silver in the darkness
She’ll lead you to the truth and tell you how.
Instrumental
She comes into the room like velvet
As silent as the mist of frosty nights
And when she finds some silver in the darkness
She’ll lead you to the truth and show you how.
She comes into the room like velvet
As silent as the mist of frosty nights
She makes no fuss to hide her own misgivings
I understand her many wrongs and rights
She’s near me when I’m in the depths of sadness
And truth is smiling as I see her by
She’ll never try to answer hopeless questions
She’s too entwined to ask the reason why
She’s there when autumn’s colours splash the daybreak
When leaves are falling gently to their home
When the streams are gliding through their pastures
And when we sit and watch the sunset all alone
Could anything be deeper than her wisdom?
Is there anything as warm as she is now?
And when she finds some silver in the darkness
She’ll lead you to the truth and tell you how.
Instrumental
She comes into the room like velvet
As silent as the mist of frosty nights
And when she finds some silver in the darkness
She’ll lead you to the truth and show you how.

guitar work is so sweet and cool. Very smooth in every way. Vocal are emotional and fit the song perfectly. Nicely done!
