Falling In For Real

[Verse 1]
You laughed and the room got quiet
Like my heartbeat leaned in to listen
Spilling coffee
We said “whatever”
But my hands kept tracing this feeling
You talked about your broken summers
How you hate your birthday in June
I memorized the way you said it
Like every word was some soft tune
[Chorus]
Oh
I think I’m falling in for real
Deeper than I meant to feel
You’re in the spaces I don’t show
In every corner of my soul
Oh
I think I’m falling
Can’t conceal
This is the moment that it’s real
You’re turning all my “maybe” into “stay”
And I can’t look away (oh, I can’t look away)
[Verse 2]
Your coat on the back of my chair now
Your toothbrush asleep by my sink
Little tokens of something bigger
Building up faster than I can think
I catch my face in the mirror
Smiling at nothing at all
Then I see your name on my phone screen
And suddenly the world feels small
[Chorus]
Oh
I think I’m falling in for real
Deeper than I meant to feel
You’re in the spaces I don’t show
In every corner of my soul
Oh
I think I’m falling
Can’t conceal
This is the moment that it’s real
You’re turning all my “maybe” into “stay”
And I can’t look away (yeah, I can’t look away)
[Bridge]
I was fine on my own
At least that’s what I told my reflection
But you leaned in close
And rewrote my quiet intentions
Now every future I imagine
You’re in the frame
You’re in the frame (oh)
And it scares me
And it saves me
That I’ll never be the same
[Chorus]
Oh
I think I’m falling in for real
Deeper than I meant to feel
You’re in the spaces I don’t show
In every corner of my soul
Oh
I think I’m falling
Can’t conceal
This is the moment that it’s real
You’re turning all my “maybe” into “stay”
And I can’t look away
No
I can’t look away (ooh)
I can’t look away (falling in for real)

Cinematic R&B slow-burn: distant piano and airy pads under a warm, swung groove. Female vocals up-front, velvety and intimate on verses; chorus swells into an anthem with stacked harmonies and reverb-washed ad-libs. Subtle strings rise in the bridge, then everything drops to vocal and keys before the final, soaring hook., ambient, female vocals, r&b
