[Spoken Intro — Male — Low, Close] Well… That didn’t go quite how we planned. [Spoken — Female — Warm, Dry] Pour me a glass. Tell me what does. [Verse 1 — Male — Behind the Beat] Left that title on the twenty-third floor Funny how my key still fits this door You’re in the kitchen, music turned down low Ask if I’m hungry, let the rest of it go I sit there wearing half the day You slide a plate and pull my tie away Say, “Eat something. You can tell me when.” I take one breath, then I breathe again [Pre-Chorus — Female — Intimate] You’ve been carrying more than you say I can feel it when you turn away Pull that chair a little close You don’t have to make a toast [Chorus — Both — Soulful, Spacious] We got a second act, baby Let the first one fade to black Leave a little room for trouble Leave the good wine on the rack We got a few more miles And a slow song left to play We got a second act, baby What you say we start today? [Female Ad-Lib — Soft] Start today… Mm, right here. [Verse 2 — Female — Smoky, Conversational] You leave your pages on my side of the bed Wake me up with something somebody said I say, “Who’s that?” You say, “Someone I wrote.” Then read three lines from a half-finished note Tuesday night, little shoes in the hall Somebody changes the rules, you lose them all Later you catch me crossing the room Put out your hand and I know what to do [Pre-Chorus — Male — Low, Melodic] There’s a flight we keep meaning to book There’s that place where you liked how I looked Wear that dress, I’ll find my shoes We still got things to get up to [Chorus — Both — Fuller Groove] We got a second act, baby Let the first one fade to black Leave a little room for trouble Leave the good wine on the rack We got a few more miles And a slow song left to play We got a second act, baby What you say we start today? [Guitar Solo — Singing Blues Bends, Hammond Answering, Unhurried] [Bridge — Male — Stripped Back, Honest] Some mornings my right hand shakes Coffee leaves a little on the plate You pass a cloth and meet my eyes Ask where I want to walk outside [Female — Close, Warm] Some nights I need you holding me Till I can let the whole day leave You move the blanket, make some room I’ve got my mornings, same as you [Both — Gentle Build] We’ve learned a thing or two by now When to talk and when to hold Still got something we can’t plan Still like seeing where it goes [Final Chorus — Both — Rich, Restrained Power] We got a second act, baby Let the first one fade to black Leave a little room for trouble Leave the good wine on the rack We got a few more miles And a slow song left to play We got a second act, baby What you say we start today? [Outro — Female — Soft, Over Guitar] Put your hand right here. [Male — Low] Thought you wanted to go out. [Female — Almost Whispered] We’ve got time. [Instrumental Outro — Guitar Bend, Warm Organ, Slow Fade]
