(Genre: Melodic Dancehall / Lovers Rock Fusion)
(INTRO: A warm, muted synth pad swells. A clean, digital dancehall piano plays a wistful, simple melody. A soft, steady one-drop drum beat with a heartbeat kick enters.)
(VERSE 1 - Voice: Tender, intimate, slightly hushed)
Yeah…
Midnight, mi check di clock face
Your side of the bed is a empty space
Mi see your perfume bottle 'pon the dresser
And mi memory start fi bless mi
Through the time zone and the mountain range
Some feelings them can never change
Mi phone glow with your goodnight text
A digital kiss, have mi heart complex…
(PRE-CHORUS - Voice gains strength, more rhythmic)
And dem can ask mi why mi hold on so tight
To a love weh mostly see through morning light
But distance cyan measure what we build inside
A solid rock foundation where our hearts reside…
(CHORUS - Melody opens up, full of yearning but powerful. Drums get crisper, bassline becomes more prominent and melodic.)
So though you far away,
Your love is right here, it deh 'pon di same frequency, every day.
Mi nah go stray, mi nah go fray,
Mi hold the line, through the hurricane and rain, yeah.
True love no get no mileage, no get no plane delay,
From mi spirit to your spirit, there's a shorter way.
So though you far away…
(Echo: Far away… away…)
(VERSE 2 - Voice: Confident, smoother flow. More dancehall cadence)
Mi send you sunsets from the Kingston bay
You send back snowflakes in a Chicago day
We trade wi stories 'pon the video call
Building futures while wi face the wall
A different chapter, but it's the same book
Just one firm, unwavering, steady look
And mi know you have your doubts sometimes, it's true
But mi love no come with an expiry, fi me and you.
(PRE-CHORUS 2)
And let them talk 'bout "out of sight, out of mind"
Them never know a love of this design!
Wi synchronize like tide and the pull of the moon
Wi separation soon done, over soon…
(CHORUS - Even fuller, with ad-libs and harmonies)
So though you far away,
Your love is right here, it deh 'pon di same frequency, every day. (Every day!)
Mi nah go stray, mi nah go fray, (Never!)
Mi hold the line, through the hurricane and rain, yeah.
True love no get no mileage, no get no plane delay,
From mi spirit to your spirit, there's a shorter way. (A shorter way!)
So though you far away…
(Echo: Yeah, mi seh far away…)
(BRIDGE - Music strips back slightly to the heartbeat kick and piano. Voice is raw, declarative)
This is more than just a feeling, dis ya is a vow.
Inna di silence is where mi hear your voice right now.
The miles them are just numbers on a dial…
Wi love is non-negotiable, cross every trial.
Is a deliberate love, a conscious choice to stay…
Feeding this fire, every single day.
(CHORUS - Outpour of emotion. Drum fills, soaring synth strings. A feeling of triumph.)
So though you far away! (Yeah!)
Your love is right here, it deh 'pon di same frequency, every day! (Mi seh every day!)
Mi nah g
