[Verse 1 - composed vocal over an immediate midtempo beat] The room was already calling my name Requests climbing faster than I could read Hearts on the screen, money in the queue Everybody wanting something from me I knew where to look, how long to stare How to make a crowded room feel close Then one familiar name slipped through And I forgot the line I almost chose [Pre-Chorus - restrained tension building] You never enter loudly You never fight for space You settle near the bottom And still I find your name [Chorus - addictive melodic release] There are thousands in the room tonight But I know exactly when you arrive The chat keeps moving, the numbers climb I only see one name at a time They can ask, they can wait, they can pay They can stay until the morning breaks But the second that you come online Everybody else fades behind One name in the chat [Verse 2 - controlled, teasing Vesper delivery] You always watch before you say a word Quiet little shadow near the edge I know the clips you linger underneath I know the ones you never quite forget So I changed the wig you liked last week Left my jacket open at the throat They think I dressed for everyone You are the only one who knows [Refrain - low layered vocals] You came back You came back I was starting to wonder [Pre-Chorus - warmer, more exposed] You never ask for much That makes me want to give Every practiced little fantasy To the one who only sits and listens [Chorus - fuller harmonies] There are thousands in the room tonight But I know exactly when you arrive The chat keeps moving, the numbers climb I only see one name at a time They can ask, they can wait, they can pay They can stay until the morning breaks But the second that you come online Everybody else fades behind One name in the chat [Bridge - intimate Zen slipping beneath Vesper] Do you think I notice everyone? Do you think this is the way I perform? Do you think the camera found you By accident every time I turned? I know when you leave early I know when you stay late I know how long you hover Before you type my name Maybe that should scare me Maybe I should stop But tonight you came back And that is all I want [Hook - dark rhythmic pulse] Stay quiet Stay close Let them think they have me Stay quiet Don’t go You are the one I’m waiting to see [Final Chorus - emotional and possessive] There are thousands in the room tonight Still I feel the moment you arrive The chat can vanish, the screen can die I would know you anywhere in the night Let them ask, let them wait, let them pay None of them can make me look that way Because every time you come online The woman underneath comes alive They see Vesper You have something more One name in the chat I was watching for [Outro - soft, nearly unmasked vocal] You never enter loudly I still find you first
