Upper Deck Kiss
Track 20 of Velvet Altitude
[ Lyrics ]
Upper deck kiss, turbulence bliss. We were halfway to Paris, eyes half-closed, champagne bubbles rising, shadows on your nose. You leaned in like a secret I was meant to keep, and suddenly the altitude made my heart skip deep. No words, just the hum of the engine’s song, and your hand brushing mine where I don’t belong. But damn, it felt like home in the middle of the sky, no rules, just the rush and the why, why, why. I told myself I wouldn't do this again, fall for a moment that could end by ten. But you looked at me like I was the view, and baby, I forgot every rule I knew. Upper deck kiss, turbulence bliss, every shake just pulls me into this. Hearts outrun the storm in the atmosphere, I didn’t plan to want you, but I do right here. Upper deck kiss, I’m caught in it, turbulence bliss, I can’t quit. Seatbelt warning’s blinking, but we don’t care, your lips taste like danger and midnight air. One hand in my hair, one on my waist, like we’re stealing this night at a thousand feet of grace. The world’s far below us, cold and gray, but up here, we’re golden, burning anyway. No tomorrow, no past, just the now, just this — you turn my calmest heart into a risk. I swore I wouldn’t open, swore I’d stay wise, but you saw through the armor in my disguise. Now I’m floating, not from the flight — I’m high on the way you hold me tight. Maybe we’re reckless, maybe we’re fools, but I haven’t felt real in anyone’s arms for too long. So let the sky rage, let the clouds cry — this is the most alive I’ve felt in my life. Upper deck kiss, turbulence bliss, every shake just pulls me deeper than this. Hearts outrun the storm in the atmosphere, I didn’t plan to love you — but I might, right here. Upper deck kiss, I’m lost in it, turbulence bliss, I want in it. Upper deck kiss… turbulence bliss…
