HERE I FOUND YOU (After Hours Cut)
⸻
(Lights low. Tempo 68 BPM. Solo piano, felted. No drums. Room tone audible.)
Mmm…
Yeah…
(soft breath)
Didn’t even know I was empty…
till you walked in…
⸻
(Piano: Fm9 → Dbmaj7. Bass enters on downbeats only.)
The beauty you have is for certain
A treasure to see
The love in your heart is for certain
A treasure to seek
(voice cracks slightly)
Every smile you give me feels honest
Every touch feels true
Every night I laid awake lonely
Was just God leading me to you
⸻
(Keys open up. Subtle pad fades in. No drums yet.)
I been searching…
Here… and all over the world
For a love that could make me brand new
I been searching…
Every heart… every girl
Still my soul never felt nothing true
⸻
(Beat drops in. Slow, knocking kick. Rimshot. Sax whispers underneath.)
And here… girl, I found you
I don’t need nobody else
Thank God for the moment
When your love saved me from myself
Yeah here… girl, I found you
I don’t need nobody else
Your love is the greatest gift
Heaven ever left
⸻
(Music drops back out. Piano + bass only. Sax silent.)
I was broken… before your touch
I was numb… before your name
Every prayer I whispered in the dark
Feels answered every time you say my name
(whispered)
Say it again…
⸻
(Beat returns. Half-time feel. Background hums enter.)
Here… girl, I found you
I ain’t searching no more
I been running my whole damn life
Didn’t know what I was running for
Yeah here… girl, I found you
And I’m right where I belong
Your love is the greatest gift
I waited my whole life long
⸻
(Outro: instruments slowly strip away. Sax cries. Piano single notes.)
(ad-libs, overlapping, emotional)
You don’t even know what you did for me…
I was tired…
I was tired of looking…
I searched the world…
I searched myself…
Didn’t need nobody else…
(choked laugh)
Yeah…
I found you…
(Final whisper. No music.)
Right here.
