Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You’re laughing at your own bad jokes Highlighter ink on your wrist Coffee ring on your notebook I pretend that I don’t notice this You tuck your hair behind one ear Scroll through slides You own the room I’m nodding like I’m taking notes Really just memorizing you [Chorus] From the desk between us To the thoughts I never say All these little glances Filing up my day If you ever wonder Why I’m always staying late It’s you It’s you In every empty page [Verse 2] You toss me questions over screens “Can you check this one more time?” I’d read spreadsheets on repeat Just to hear your voice align You talk about your weekend plans Friends and movies Where you’ll go I’m tracing circles on my mousepad Acting like I’m fine to let it go [Chorus] From the desk between us To the thoughts I never say All these little glances Filing up my day If you ever wonder Why I’m always staying late It’s you It’s you In every empty page [Bridge] What if we walked out the front door Past the keycards and the glow Turned a “see you Monday morning” Into “tell me things I don’t know” What if I said you’re beautiful And smarter than you’ll ever see Would it ruin what we’re used to Or finally set us free (oh) [Chorus] From the desk between us To the thoughts I want to say All these little chances I keep tucking away If you ever wonder Who I’m hoping might stay late It’s you It’s you Yeah It’s you It’s you In every empty page

Warm indie-pop groove with male vocals, soft electric piano and clean guitar. Verses are close and conversational over brushed drums; chorus widens with stacked harmonies and a simple, sticky hook. Bass stays round and supportive, with a gentle lift into a dreamy bridge that pulls back to almost a whisper before the final chorus blooms., beautiful
