INTRO (soft, moody)
Rain taps slow on my windowpane, (yeah…)
(bg: ooh-ohh… ahh-ahh…)
Whispers float like they know my name. (mmm-hmm)
I breathe in the truth, exhale all the lies—
(bg: soft “mmm…mmm…”)
Still caught in the echo of your changing skies. (echo…)
⸻
VERSE 1
We used to drift in sync through the quiet nights,
(bg: ooh-ooh… drifting… drifting…)
Soul to soul, moving gentle in the low moonlight. (so gentle…)
But something shifted in the pulse between us,
(bg: ahh—ahh—ahh… subtle rise)
A rhythm broke—now the silence leans on us. (leans heavy…)
I trace the outline of what we used to claim,
Your distant gaze don’t look the same. (it’s changed…)
(bg: ooh… fading… fading…)
I reach for answers buried in your breath,
But all I feel now is the weight of what’s left. (oh, what’s left…)
(bg: low humming harmony: hmm-mm-mm)
⸻
I can’t believe I’m here with you
(bg: ahh-ahh… here with you…)
After it seemed,
(seemed) (seemed like fate…)
(bg: ooh—seemed—ooh)
faith deemed us one, not two….
(Two) (not two…)
(bg: soft “ahh… two…”)
Listen, now I wonder
What changed your tune
(bg: what changed… what changed…)
That has the power, now making one and one
Equals a few
(bg: ooooh… few now… ahhh)
(Oh, la, la, laaa…… few) (ohhh, few now…)
Great memories every noon
(bg: noon… noo-ooon… ahh…)
⸻
VERSE 2
If love was a language, we spoke it so clear, (so clear…)
(bg: airy “ooh-ooh…”)
But lately your words don’t land like they did last year.
I’m dancing on pieces of what used to be whole,
(bg: ahh… broken pieces… ahh…)
Tiptoeing ‘round the shadows living in your soul. (in your soul…)
You’re close enough to touch, but far enough to lose, (too far…)
(bg: ooh—far away… ooh)
Every heartbeat tries to tell me what to choose.
Your silence blooms louder than your voice ever could,
And I feel it—deep down—you stopped loving me good. (hurts to say…)
(bg: low stacked harmonies: “mmm-mmm… you did… you did…”)
⸻
BRIDGE
I hold the fragments you let fall, (fallin’…)
(bg: falling… falling… ahh…)
Trying to understand it all. (all of it…)
(bg: soft chord pad “oooh—aaaah”)
If love is fading, tell me true—
Don’t leave me guessing what I mean to you.
(bg: harmonized “mean to you… mean to you…”)
If you’re already gone, don’t let me stay, (don’t let me stay…)
Just whisper the truth and walk away. (walk away… yeah…)
(bg: whispery “walk away… away… away…”)
⸻
CHORUS
I can’t believe I’m here with you
(bg: strong “ahh—ahh— ahh—here with you”)
After it seemed,
(seemed) (seemed…)
(bg: ooh—ooh—seeeemed)
faith deemed us one, not two….
(Two) (not two no more…)
(bg: stacked “two… two… ahhhh”)
Listen, now I wonder
What changed your tune
(bg: what changed… what changed… ooh)
That has the power, now making one and one
Equals a few
(Oh, la, la, laaa…… few)
(bg: la-la-laaa… few… ahhh…)
Great memories every noon
(bg: noon—noon—noo-ooon)
⸻
OUTRO
Maybe love was meant to shift, (shift on me…)
(bg: soft “ooh… shift…”)
Maybe hearts can drift and lift.
But if one and one no longer equals two,
I hope
