Someone I Don’t Know

V5.5

[Intro] (rain against windows, soft synth pads, distant saxophone textures) Mm… Ah… ⸻ [Verse 1] Midnight spilling through the station Silver smoke and tired eyes You stood beneath the flickering lights Like a scene I’d left behind Your voice was low and careful Like you knew the weight of words And somehow in the silence I felt something start to turn ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] The city moved around us But time stood still awhile ⸻ [Chorus] Someone I don’t know Walking underneath the station lights Somehow making this whole city Feel alive tonight Someone I don’t know With your shadow next to mine And for a little while I don’t disappear tonight ⸻ [Verse 2] Taxi headlights crossed your face Gold against the pouring rain And every passing stranger Felt miles and miles away We talked about nothing Like it meant everything Two lost souls in the neon Holding onto fragile things ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] And for the first time in forever The dark didn’t feel so endless ⸻ [Chorus] Someone I don’t know Walking underneath the station lights Somehow making this whole city Feel alive tonight Someone I don’t know Like you’ve known me all my life And for a little while I don’t disappear tonight ⸻ [Bridge] (instrumentation widens softly — synths shimmer underneath) Maybe love begins like this Quiet as the falling rain Not a lightning strike Just somebody changing The way the night feels Oh… ⸻ [Final Chorus] Someone I don’t know Standing underneath electric skies Turning all these empty streets Into something warm tonight Someone I don’t know But I still see you in my mind And for a little while I remembered what it feels like To be alive Mm… Alive tonight… ⸻ [Outro] (synth pads and guitar echoes fade into distant city ambience) Someone I don’t know… Mm… Alive tonight…
