Lyrics
[Verse]
Piano pours a crimson whisper, candles press against the glass
Violin begins to wander, sketching memories that pass
Cello hums beneath the table, breathing velvet into night
Saxophone leans in to answer, trading secrets with the light
[Verse]
Street-lamps ripple on the river, clock hands drown in honeyed time
Your reflection curls with smoke rings, tasting laughter, salt, and lime
Strings entwine like soft confession, every bow-stroke cuts the air
Sax resolves the hidden question, sliding autumn through your hair
[Bridge]
Cello pulses—heart-beat anchor, piano finds a minor prayer
Silence blooms between two glances, violin holds it in the air
Then the saxophone, half-broken, bends the moon a deeper shade
We drift weightless in the amber that the melody has made
[Verse]
Morning waits behind the awning, dew collects on cobalt dawn
But the night still hums inside us—one more chorus, then it's gone
Violin ascends in shimmer, cello answers, low and true
Piano closes lids of daylight while the sax exhales "adieu"
[Outro]
Let the last note paint a promise on the back of closing eyes
Silhouettes remain in amber, warm as unspoken goodbyes
