[Intro – soft, distant, reverb piano]
Whispers in the silence
Echoes of your name
Every light is fading
But I still feel the same
[Verse 1]
I see you in the corner of every crowded room
Like a ghost that I can’t outrun
Tried to bury every memory of you
But you’re still my setting sun
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
You’re not coming back again
But my heart don’t listen when
[Chorus]
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Waiting for a ghost to hold
Every beat just pulls me closer
To a love I can’t let go
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Spinning where we used to go
Lights go down but I still see you
In every shadow
[Drop – minimal vocal chop idea]
Dark… alone…
Dark… alone…
I’m dancing in the dark alone…
[Heavy melodic techno drop with emotional lead]
[Verse 2]
Your jacket on my shoulders still
Like you never really left
Every song we used to play
Feels like dancing with your breath
I’m pretending I don’t miss you
While I’m losing who I am
Every night I try to forget
But I don’t think I can
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
You’re just a memory
But you’re still a part of me
[Chorus]
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Waiting for a ghost to hold
Every beat just pulls me closer
To a love I can’t let go
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Spinning where we used to go
Lights go down but I still see you
In every shadow
[Drop – minimal vocal chop idea]
Dark… alone…
Dark… alone…
I’m dancing in the dark alone…
[Heavy melodic techno drop with emotional lead]
[Breakdown – emotional, stripped]
If I close my eyes
You’re right here with me
In the night, in the sound
In the spaces in between
If I let you go
Who am I without you?
In the dark… I still find you
[Build – rising tension]
Heartbeat racing, no escape
Every step I feel your trace
If you’re gone then why’s it feel
Like you’re one breath away?
[Final Chorus – bigger, layered]
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Waiting for a ghost to hold
Every beat just pulls me closer
To a love I can’t let go
I’m dancing in the dark alone
Spinning where we used to go
Even when the lights are fading
I still see your shadow
[Outro – soft, fading]
I’m dancing in the dark…
Alone…
