AFTER THE LAST ICE

V5.5

[Verse 1 – Female] The room gets softer after midnight When the laughter turns to low light One last cube of ice in my glass One more song before the moment passed You leaned in close like you knew the time Like the night was yours and half was mine No hard start and no clear end Just the kind of silence that pulls you in [Verse 2 – Male] The band played low in the back somewhere Saxophone smoke in the velvet air You looked at me like a question mark And I answered with my eyes in the dark No one rushed and no one stared It felt like the city forgot we were there Just your shadow next to mine And a little gold left in the wine [Pre-Chorus – Both] Stay here slow Don’t break the spell Some nights don’t need A story to tell Just one last sip One last advice Love feels different After the last ice [Chorus – Both] After the last ice After the last light We move closer Without trying No loud promise No fake goodbye Just your hand finding mine After the last ice [Verse 3 – Female] Your voice sat low like a record spin Soft enough to let me in I laughed once and you caught that sound Like it was something worth keeping around [Verse 4 – Male] The bar was closing but not too fast Like even the room wanted this to last And every second felt refined Like a perfect drink and borrowed time [Pre-Chorus – Both] Stay here now The night is wise Some things bloom Under closing lights One more breath No need to hide Love tastes warmer After the last ice [Chorus – Both] After the last ice After the last light We move closer Without trying No loud promise No fake goodbye Just your hand finding mine After the last ice [Bridge – Female / Male / Both] Female: Maybe the magic is small Male: Maybe that’s what makes it all Both: So hard to leave So easy to miss What begins like this After the last ice [Final Chorus – Both] After the last ice After the last song You and I linger A little too long No need forever To know what’s right Some hearts open slow After the last ice
