[Intro]
[Warm acoustic guitar picking]
[Soft synth pulse]
[Verse 1]
Seventy beats when the room is still
Sitting by the window on the sill
Tracing the outline of your phone
Quiet routine when I’m here alone
Coffee cooling by the bedside table
Telling myself I’m calm and stable
Nothing rushing, the clock moves slow
Steady as the afternoon glow
[Pre-Chorus]
[Build with subtle synth pulse]
Then the hallway door swings open wide
And the silence breaks when you step inside
You drop your keys on the kitchen floor
And I’m not at seventy anymore
[Chorus]
[Bright, rhythmic, full instrumentation]
Oh, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Losing count to a little danger
Two steps closer and the tempo shifts
Watch that line on the monitor lift
You don’t have to say a single word
And it’s the loudest beat I’ve ever heard
Yeah, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Isn’t so resting when I’m near you
[Verse 2]
Eighty-five beats when you take your coat off
Laughing at a joke that barely took off
Pulse in my wrist like an acoustic strum
Falling in time with the beat you drum
We talk about nothing, news and weather
While my heart tries to hold it together
A natural spike I can’t disguise
Every single time I catch your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
[Build higher]
Yeah, the room is quiet, the evening’s late
But my ribs can’t handle this kind of rate
You lean in close just to clear your throat
And I lose my place on the very next note
[Chorus]
[Full, bright, energetic]
Oh, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Losing count to a little danger
Two steps closer and the tempo shifts
Watch that line on the monitor lift
You don’t have to say a single word
And it’s the loudest beat I’ve ever heard
Yeah, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Isn’t so resting when I’m near you
[Bridge]
[Strip back to acoustic guitar]
[Syncopated kick and subtle synth]
Hold your breath, let the count reset
That’s the closest thing to safety yet
Then you touch my hand and the baseline breaks
Listen to the music that your presence makes
It’s not panic, no, it’s just the key
To everything you bring out of me
[Final Chorus]
[Biggest chorus, layered vocals, pulsing synths]
Oh, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Losing count to a little danger
Two steps closer and the tempo shifts
Watch that line on the monitor lift
You don’t have to say a single word
And it’s the loudest beat I’ve ever heard
Yeah, my resting heart rate in Ay Major
Isn’t so resting when I’m near you
[Outro]
[Acoustic guitar slows]
[Instruments gradually fade]
Seventy beats…
Eighty-five…
One-ten…
Yeah…
Resting heart rate in Ay Major…
Oh yeah…oh yeah…
Oh yeah…oh yeah
