[Verse 1- Mid register, speech-like, stepwise, gentle rise then fall] [I–V–vi–IV] Gray on the glass Floorboards sigh I stand in the hush Before the sky [I–V–IV–I] There in the quiet Close to the skin You are the way The day comes in --- [Verse 2 - Same contour, conversational, subtle lift at end] [I–V–vi–IV] World at the door Hard and bright You in the soft Edge of light [I–V–IV–I] No grand display No borrowed flame Just how the dark Speaks your name --- [Chorus - Expanded range, defining leap on “first,” sustain then stepwise resolve] [I–V–vi–IV] You are my first light Cut through the night Lift my breath Set it right [I–V–IV–I] Every morning Starts in you Before the world Comes through --- [Verse 3 - Return to mid range, steady, intimate] [I–V–vi–IV] Cold in the air Hands unsure You in the still Steady and sure [I–V–IV–I] Not a blaze Not a spark Just the slow Bloom of the dark --- [Bridge - Begin higher, wider intervals, emotional pivot] [vi–V–IV–I] If I wander If I fall You are the rise Under it all [I–V–IV–I] Every dawn Finds the same— I wake alive In your name --- [Final Chorus - Highest lift, sustained leap, descending resolve] [I–V–vi–IV] You are my first light Cut through the night Lift my breath Set it right [I–V–IV–I] Every morning Starts in you Before the world I choose you [Final line descends gently to tonic]
