Pop ballad with mid-tempo sway, gentle syncopated kick and warm piano arpeggios; verse stays intimate and close-mic with sparse bass and finger snaps, pre-chorus lifts with layered harmony stacks and rising strings, chorus opens into wide drums and singable gang oohs. Add reverse swells into each chorus, a soft bell spark after key lines, and a final lift with doubled lead vocal. Bright, emotional, radio-polished mix with glossy highs and a big center vocal.
