His lifeline cut off at the source
A first fence faller three mile course
A jedi knight without the force
He missed her velvet touch
A tarnished gemstone does not shine
The bitter taste of tonic wine
A banquet where the vultures dine
He missed her velvet touch
A power plant run low on gas
A chandelier of broken glass
She took away his back stage pass
He missed her velvet touch
A heart that lost it's rhythmic beat
He walks another dead end street
A raging fire still brings no heat
He missed her velvet touch
He excorcised love's haunting ghost
She said the words he cherished most
They raised a glass she made the toast
He felt her velvet touch
