[Verse 1 – Her / Him (interwoven)] (Her) They asked where I was when the night fell quiet, (Him) They asked what I saw when the lights went dim. (Her) I said the music never died, (Him) I said the glass was full to the rim. (Both) We learned the steps before the crime— Two hearts rehearsed in borrowed time. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 1 – Together] Every breath a practiced line, Every lie in perfect time. ⸻ [Chorus 1 – Unison, rising harmony] Your story fits mine, word for word, A silent vow the world misheard. Every lie a lover’s prayer, Every truth we never dared. ⸻ [Verse 2 – Him / Her (interwoven)] (Him) They said your heels left prints in red, (Her) They said your hands were cold instead. (Him) I told them shadows blur the floor, (Her) I told them I was at the door. (Both) The clocks all stopped, the candles swayed— Our alibi already made. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2 – Together, quieter] The rhythm hides what we defend, The waltz begins, it never ends. ⸻ [Chorus 2 – Full harmony] Your story fits mine, word for word, A promise kept, a truth deferred. Every breath a veiled amen, We dance the same lie once again. ⸻ [Bridge – Hushed, heartbeat percussion] (Her) If they ask again, just hold my gaze. (Him) If they doubt, let silence praise. (Both) What we remember, we’ll repeat— Step for step, deceit for deceit. ⸻ [Final Chorus – Soft then soaring] Your story fits mine, word for word, The world forgets what it inferred. Every lie a lover’s prayer, Every truth dissolves in air. (whispered tag) And when they ask where we have been— We smile… and start the dance again.
