(Intro warped tape, lone Rhodes)
Static breathing with the room
Soft light, empty gloom
(Verse 1 sad, breathy)
Pages of a book left open on the floor
Your sweater on the chair like you’re right by the door
Clock hands crawl, pulling at my chest
Silence in the hallway won’t let me rest
Steps echo where your laughter used to stay
My voice cracks trying to find a thing to say
But in every pause, every space so wide
I swear I hear you just outside
(Pre-Chorus building reverb)
Heart trembling like a chord out of tune
Nights stretch long like a quiet afternoon
But something warm keeps drifting through
A gentle hum that sounds like you
(Chorus catchy, sub-bass thump)
Fading into the midnight hue
I was lost, then I felt you
Fading in, worlds align
Pull me close, cross the line
Oh oh oh, breath meets breath
Oh oh oh, life from death
Fading in, spun around
You and me a steady sound
(Verse 2 turning hopeful)
You stepped in slow like a sunrise glow
Eyes met mine, everything froze
Soft smile blooming in the crowded night
Every worry melted in your light
Finger to finger, sparks rang clear
Whispers fell sweet, right in my ear
From lonely echoes to something true
Every beat pulling me to you
(Bridge dual breathy, catchy hook)
We rose from the static, caught on a chord
Sad songs drifted and we moved forward
No more shadows, just sky in view
Breathing steady, me and you
(Final Chorus euphoric choir, catchy repeat)
Fading into the midnight hue (hue)
I was lost, then I felt you (you)
Fading in, worlds align (align)
Pull me close, cross the line
Oh oh oh, breath meets breath (breath)
Oh oh oh, life from death (death)
Fading in, spun around
You and me a steady sound (sound)
(Outro tape fade)
Fading… into… you…
