[Verse 1 – female vocal] The streetlights flicker off in line Shutters open, waiters shine The city sighs, the clock rewinds But I’m still holding onto time [Verse 2 – male vocal] The café chairs are pulled outside Cobblestones reflect the sky I trace my thumb along your hand The morning’s here, but I still stand [Chorus – Together] When the lights came back on, we didn’t move Coffee brewing, footsteps grew The city woke, but we held tight Like we were still caught in last night [Verse 3 – female vocal] Someone sweeps the midnight glass A bus pulls out, the echoes pass You say my name, I almost freeze Like it belongs to these old streets [Verse 4 – male vocal] I watch you brush your hair away The dawn spills light across your face I say your name, it feels like mine Like I’ve been whispering it for all of time [Chorus – Together, stronger] When the lights came back on, we didn’t leave Paris blinking, we just breathe The morning slipped in through the haze But I’m still lost in midnight’s gaze [Bridge – Instrumental, soft guitar and piano] [The clink of dishes, the slow rise of sunlight, footsteps echoing on wet cobblestones…] [Verse 5 – female vocal] We sit and watch the city wake Hands still tangled, hearts still ache I tell you stories of my years You listen close, you disappear [Verse 6 – male vocal] I tell you how I used to roam Five blocks from you, but all alone You smile like it’s a secret kept I want to tell you I never left [Final Chorus – Together, hushed and intimate] When the lights came back on, we didn’t move Morning poured across the roofs Paris woke, but we held tight Like we were still caught in last night [Outro – whispered, overlapping] [Female vocal] I don’t want to leave… [Male vocal] I don’t want you to… [Soft fade — the distant hum of morning traffic, footsteps, soft conversation]
