Verse 1
Laughter echoes down the staircase [1980s synth-pop] [warm synth pad],
Little footsteps fill the air [gated reverb drums light],
Milk and cereal in the morning [electric piano sparkle],
Love is everywhere [tenor pop vocal + female echo].
Chorus
Baby in the hallway, shining like the sun [big 80s snare + synth bass],
Dancing in the kitchen, joy for everyone [bright synth brass],
Time can’t take these simple days away [anthemic vocal lift],
We’re forever young in love this way [layered harmony stack].
Verse 2
Painted walls with tiny handprints [chorus guitar clean tone],
Crayons scattered on the floor [dreamy synth texture],
Golden frames upon the mantle [soft sax line creeping in],
Every year we love them more [family warmth].
Chorus
Baby in the hallway, shining like the sun [female harmony layering],
Dancing in the kitchen, joy for everyone [synth chords uplifting],
Time can’t take these simple days away [anthemic chorus rise],
We’re forever young in love this way [pop duet harmonies].
Bridge
[Instrumental: saxophone solo + shimmering synth arpeggios]
[background vocals: “Ooooh forever young, forever one…”]
Verse 3 (short + reflective)
Quiet nights when they’re all sleeping [soft piano intro],
I still reach for your hand [gentle synth strings],
Through the silence, love is keeping [soft crooner tone],
Every dream is what we planned [nostalgic glow].
Chorus
Baby in the hallway, shining like the sun [full band, sax soaring],
Dancing in the kitchen, joy for everyone [anthemic pop power],
Time can’t take these simple days away [vocal stack explosion],
We’re forever young in love this way [fade out on sax riff + synth pads].
