[Intro: Electric piano voicing extended 9th–13th chords, soft tape saturation, moog sine glide, brushed bongos] [Layered falsetto clusters, close harmony] Mmm… Stay there… Right in between… [Verse] Champagne silence on your skin Every touch a discipline We don’t fall, we arrive slow In the spaces lovers know Your eyes speak in altered tones Half diminished, undertones Every breath, a borrowed key Resolving into me [Instrumental fill: Fender Rhodes run with subtle pitch bend, airy stacked harmonies] [Chorus] Slow down, baby… don’t release Let the tension turn to peace Right before the wave unwinds We suspend ourselves in time Same time… we bloom, we bend No beginning, no real end Floating where the edges rhyme Let’s bliss at the same time (same time) [Verse] You phrase me like a velvet line Slide my doubt to something divine Minor turns to major light When you hold me just not quite We hover on that sacred thread Where want and wonder both are fed Every second stretched so wide We live a lifetime in the glide [Instrumental break: Moog lead improvisation, jazz phrased, bongos + rimshot groove, vocal “ooh” chords swelling] [Chorus] Slow down, baby… don’t release Let the tension turn to peace Right before the wave unwinds We suspend ourselves in time Same time… we bloom, we bend No beginning, no real end Floating where the edges rhyme Let’s bliss at the same time (same time) [Bridge: Sparse Rhodes, intimate vocal layering, dynamic phrasing] Hold it… right there in the ache Where the sweetest tremors wake (ahh… don’t let it fall…) We’re dancing on suspended air Almost gone, but still right there Every nerve a softened chime Ringing out in borrowed time [Instrumental swell: lush synth pads, harmonic modulation, falsetto stack rising] [Chorus] Slow down, baby… stay with me In this quiet ecstasy We don’t chase what we can’t keep We just dive and drift and be Same time… القلب aligns (soft whispered harmony layer) Breath for breath, design by design Held between your pulse and mine Let’s bliss at the same time (same time) [Outro: Fading Rhodes chords, moog tail, whispered harmonies drifting] In between… (we stay… we stay…) No release… just time… [end]
