V5.5

[Intro]
(TR-808 rhythm. Jazz Bass deep loop. Stratocaster scratching.)
(Frankie Lead: "Come on! Yeah... check the clock. Right on time...")
[Verse 1]
(Vocal: Silky Baritone-Tenor singing)
Tracing the silhouette of the skyline
Through the glass, the city holds its breath
I was drifting in a silent design
Chasing shadows of what’s left
[Verse 2]
The pavement glows in a monochrome hue
Echoes of a rhythm I once knew
I was searching for a missing frequency
Until you tuned your heart to me
[Pre-Chorus]
(OB-Xa pads / Harmony: "Ooh-ooh, so real")
You broke the stillness of the dark
Ignited a dormant, ancient spark
It wasn’t early, it wasn’t late
[Chorus]
(Full group harmony)
Right on time
Your love is right on time
(Lead: "Oh baby, it's synchronized")
Right on time
Your love is right on time
[Bridge 1: Long Synth & Guitar Bridge]
(16 bars: OB-Xa sweeps and Stratocaster rhythmic scratching. Deep analog pocket.)
[Verse 3]
No more wandering through the hollow halls
The architecture of the lonely falls
Every gear is turning in its place
Reflected in the aura of your face
[Verse 4]
I’m anchored by the weight of your gaze
Navigating through the midnight haze
A calibration that I can't deny
The ultimate truth beneath the sky
[Verse 5]
The magnetism of a midnight tide
Pulling the secrets we used to hide
No longer fractured, no longer thin
The radiant essence of what's within
[Chorus]
(Re-entry with full energy)
Right on time
Your love is right on time
(Lead: "In the mid of the night, yeah")
Right on time
Your love is right on time
[Bridge 2: Jazzy Piano Bridge]
(16 bars: Acoustic Piano solo over a warm Rhodes bed. Fluid and sophisticated.)
[Verse 6]
Beyond the static of the empty noise
I found the balance in your gentle voice
A composition that was meant to be
The geometry of you and me
[Verse 7]
In the mid of the night, we find the core
Opening wide the hidden door
Every second is a perfect line
Everything is finally align
[Chorus]
Right on time (Oh, so right)
Your love is right on time (Exactly what I needed)
Right on time (Never a second late)
Your love is right on time
[Outro: Jazzy & Electro Fade-out]
(Vocals fade. Acoustic Piano leads with jazzy flourishes.)
(OB-Xa introduces subtle electro-style arpeggios and resonant sweeps.)
(Lead Ad-lib: "Right on time... stay in the pocket... Maze...")
(Slow fade out into the midnight atmosphere.)
