[Intro | muted trumpet with Harmon mute, walking upright bass, stride piano, brushed snare, smoky late-night jazz lounge, 75 BPM, 4 bars instrumental] [Verse 1 | intimate female contralto croon, low register, close mic, gentle restrained vibrato, conversational delivery, sparse backing with upright bass and stride piano, brushed snare] We are an unlikely pair, no doubt at all You are broad and strong, solid and sure I am small, and I have sharper eyes [Chorus | warm contralto, slightly raised intensity, muted trumpet answering lines, stacked piano chords, brushed drums steady, short pause before "we do" and "we know"] Some will say that you're too wild for me But they don't see — we do Some will say that I'll break against you But they don't know — we know [Verse 2 | intimate female contralto, slight smoky rasp, confessional tone, upright bass walking, stride piano warmer, soft clarinet accent] Our meetings are honest, plain, and true I look fragile, but oh, I never break You are hewn, untamed, and hard to know [Chorus | warm contralto, muted trumpet answering lines, brushed drums steady, short pause before "we do" and "we know"] Some will say that you're too wild for me But they don't see — we do Some will say that I'll break against you But they don't know — we know [Bridge | declarative female vocal with quiet authority, fuller band presence, piano chords held longer, bass deeper, slight crescendo through the section, emotional build-up, grounded and resolute] You shape me, I am shaped in you We trust the wild between us two Nothing more and nothing less No excuses, no holding back [Instrumental | muted trumpet solo with Harmon mute, subtle growl and vibrato, stride piano comping, walking bass, brushed drums, 8 bars classic 1920s jazz solo] [Chorus | warm contralto with more emotion, muted trumpet answering, full band gentle swell, brushed drums steady, short pause before "we do" and "we know"] Some will say that you're too wild for me But they don't see — we do Some will say that I'll break against you But they don't know — we know [Outro | hushed intimate female contralto, very close mic, sparse piano and upright bass only, trumpet fading in softly on last line, hymn-like reverence, slowing slightly, contemplative and final] I feel the depth with you Something sacred holds between us What was two is one A before and an after [End | soft fade on muted trumpet and piano, brushed cymbal swell, 75 BPM]
