V6

[Verse 1] I keep the floor beneath the tune The pulse that doesn’t rush or lag You climb the stairs I built for you And hang the light along the track I take the line you leave for me A thread that wouldn’t hold alone Your left hand finds the missing beat My right hand finds a way back home [Chorus] Four hands on eighty-eight Two stories, one weight You hold the ground, I hold the air We only land when both are there If one lets go, the song falls through It only lives when I play you [Verse 2] I don’t need the melody to shine I need the room where it can stand You don’t need the bass to prove you’re fine You need the hand that understands So I don’t race ahead of you And you don’t drag the tempo down We trade the lead, we trade the blue We split the dark and share the sound [Chorus] Four hands on eighty-eight Two stories, one weight You hold the ground, I hold the air We only land when both are there If one lets go, the song falls through It only lives when I play you [Bridge] Can you hear me in the upper keys I hear you where the low notes breathe Don’t finish what I start Leave the rest inside my part One piano, two of us Nothing whole until we touch [Final Chorus] Four hands on eighty-eight No solo, no debate You are the root, I am the flare The song is only what we share Play me, and I’ll play you back Two hands making what one hand lacks [Outro] soft piano only, unfinished high note answered by a low chord
