[Intro – whispered vocals, light percussion + filtered bass]
(Whispered, close to mic)
Shhh…
The night is ours…
Let it burn slow.
⸻
[Verse 1 – soft voice, minimal beat]
Warm night air, and your eyes on me,
Slow motion moves like the deep blue sea.
Closer now, feel the heat we make,
Every little step is a chance to take.
(Instrumental: soft kick, filtered bass, clean guitar with reverb, stereo shaker)
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – gradual build, add pads + extra percussion]
Don’t rush… take your time with it,
Read between the lines, just a little bit.
You know there’s more than what you see,
Follow the rhythm, and you’ll find the key.
(Soft snare roll, slowly opening bass filter)
⸻
[Chorus – HIGH, full beat + steel drum lead]
Tropical… sweet and slow,
You’ll get close, but you’ll never know.
Tropical… warm like fire,
Every step pulls you in higher.
(Instrumental: open bass, strong claps, steel drum melody, active congas and bongos)
⸻
[Post-Chorus – vocal pause, only steel drum + percussion]
(Whispered ad-libs)
Oh-oh… mmm… yeah…
⸻
[Verse 2 – LOW, back to minimal beat]
Under the moon, got you hypnotized,
Guessing the truth from my smiling eyes.
Every sway hides a little clue,
Not everything’s meant to show to you.
(Instrumental: filtered bass, no steel drum, clean guitar with delay)
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – gradual build again]
Don’t rush… take your time with it,
Read between the lines, just a little bit.
You know there’s more than what you see,
Follow the rhythm, and you’ll find the key.
⸻
[Chorus – HIGH, add harmonies and ad-libs]
Tropical… sweet and slow,
You’ll get close, but you’ll never know.
Tropical… warm like fire,
Every step pulls you in higher.
⸻
[Bridge – LOW, whispered with long reverb]
(Whispered)
Maybe it’s sugar… maybe it’s spice,
You’ll never know… unless you roll the dice.
(Instrumental: only soft percussion + pads, build with shaker and riser)
⸻
[Final Chorus – MAX HIGH, all layers + crash cymbals]
Tropical… sweet and slow,
You’ll get close, but you’ll never know.
Tropical… warm like fire,
Every step pulls you in higher.
⸻
[Outro – LOW, only steel drum + light percussion]
(Whispered)
Tropical…
Let it burn slow…
