✨✨✨✨✨ [Verse 1: quiet acoustic guitar enters, warm gritty vocal, vulnerable] You walked in and stayed like a star, like the moon in the sky. You weren't always free, you shared your freedom with another man. He walked away, but he left a trace, for the years, for the ages, for all time! [Chorus: full band sudden entrance, heavy slow drum beat, emotional orchestration, powerful belt] What should I do, how can I be? Tear the thread? But the knots are back again. When I'm next to you, just say to me: "Don't you leave! Don't you leave!" [Verse 2: acoustic guitar strings squeak, cello swells build, vocal intensity grows] And now, past the mountains of useless regrets, I remember all that I failed to save. Your smile, your proud and distant gaze, Bring back that moment when God still kept us safe! [Chorus: maximum stereo width, soaring strings, full powerful voice with raw emotion] What should I do, how can I be? Tear the thread? But the knots are back again. When I'm next to you, just say to me: "Don't you leave! Don't you leave!" [Bridge: stripped back instantly, only piano and crying cello, intense low singing] The night is gone, but the candle burns. In this light, we'll both fade away. I will leave, but I'll leave a trace, For the years, for the ages, for always! [Final Chorus: explosive climax, maximum volume, heavy emotional vocal, voice cracks with passion] What should I do, how can I be? Tear the thread? But the knots are back again. When I'm next to you, just say to me: "Don't you leave! Don't you leave!" [Outro: drums stop, quiet piano chords, fading whisper] For the years... for the ages... for always... [Instrumental Outro: single long cello note decays into silence]
