(Vocal)
Streetlights paint the window pane, it’s past the two-a-m sign
Still got that thought of you, circling, running through my mind
Yeah, the music's down low, just a slow-burning ember
Tryna push the memory out, but I know I’ll still remember
The way the world would stop, just for a moment, when you smiled
Now it’s just this slow, heavy beat, tryna reconcile.
The silence with the sound, the feeling that you left me with.
Should be asleep, yeah, should be long gone
But my soul keeps humming this late-night song
And I keep tracing the lines on the ceiling, trying to find
A way to get you off my...
It’s the Midnight Glow, yeah, it’s the way the darkness moves
Pulling me back to the rhythm of the memory, finding all the proof
I can't let go, no, not when this beat is pulsing slow
The deeper the night gets, baby, the deeper the feeling goes.
It’s the Midnight Glow.
(Vocal)
Turn the phone over, don't need a distraction, don't wanna reach out
But this simple, heavy backbeat knows exactly what I'm about
See, that silence is the trigger, it opens up the space
For every single word we whispered, every touch, every embrace
I try to change the station, find a different frequency to ride
But my own damn heart is the drummer, keeping time deep down inside.
Yeah, it’s a stubborn, steady rhythm
Should be asleep, yeah, should be long gone
But my soul keeps humming this late-night song
And I keep tracing the lines on the ceiling, trying to find
A way to get you off my...
It’s the Midnight Glow, yeah, it’s the way the darkness moves
Pulling me back to the rhythm of the memory, finding all the proof
I can't let go, no, not when this beat is pulsing slow
The deeper the night gets, baby, the deeper the feeling goes.
It’s the Midnight Glow.
And I know I shouldn’t linger, I know I shouldn't stay right here
But the silence is too loud when the rhythm isn't near
Just let the bass rumble, let it do what it gotta do
'Cause it's the only honest thing keeping me connected to you.
Yeah, the low note is the truth.
(Vocal - whispered/sung low)
Midnight Glow... yeah...
(The bass line slowly repeats its core motif, getting quieter.)
Still got that rhythm... low and slow...
(The kick drum hits less frequently, the piano chord fades, leaving only the sustained bass tone and the gentle hi-hat.)
...Deep, deep...
(Fade to silence.)
