(Intro) (Piano & Synth Pads – open, suspended)
Dust in the afternoon light,
A figure fading, half in sight.
Velvet curtain, silver seam,
The ghost of wanting in a dream.
Static hums, a low refrain,
A promise trembling in the rain.
(Verse 1) (Subtle beat begins, liquid rhythm)
The window open, undefined,
A current drifts, it brushes mine.
Cobblestone streets in a blurred recall,
Smoke on the air, a shadowed wall.
I reach, but nothing wants to stay,
It slips like tide, it pulls away.
(Pre- Chorus) (Trumpet enters – hushed, sustained notes) (Trumpet: a single breath, low and amber)
The air is heavy with unseen things,
A melody the silence sings.
A fleeting shape, a fragile trace,
Of something more, a hidden space.
(Chorus) (Beat opens, trumpet threads through phrases)
Let it go… let it be…
Endless tide, endlessly.
Let it go… let it be…
Endless tide, endlessly.
(Verse 2) (More layered, beat firmer, piano accents brighter)
Rain on glass, a phantom flame,
Faces flicker, none the same.
I build a shelter in the grey,
To keep the restless tide at bay.
Woodsmoke drifts, a distant bell,
A story I can’t fully tell.
(Pre-Chorus) (Trumpet more melodic, echoing phrases) (Trumpet: two short calls – “let it go… let it go…”)
The air is heavy with unseen things,
A melody the silence sings.
A fleeting shape, a fragile trace,
Of something more, a hidden space.
(Chorus) (Full, wave-like, trumpet pushing gently forward)
Let it go… let it be…
Endless tide, endlessly.
Let it go… let it be…
Endless tide, endlessly.
Bridge (Instrumental – trumpet solo rises, swells, and recedes; piano keeps steady, grounding pulse. Trumpet explores like breath turning into tide, never overpowering.)
It’s a current, a pull, a wave,
A silent rise, a quiet grave.
(Outro) (Return to spacious piano & synth pads)
The window’s still open wide,
The current moving, undefined
Just the knowing…
Just the knowing…
(Vinyl crackle, soft pads, trumpet sigh fading out.)
