(Intro - Piano suave com a batida de coração na mão esquerda)
(Verse 1)
The sun is hiding behind the grey
Watching the city fade away
We’re sitting here on this rusty hood
Wishing we could stay for good
The sky is painted in pink and gold
A story that we’ve never told
But the shadows grow, and the wind gets cold
And we’re just trying to keep our hold.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I can feel the rhythm of your heart
Beat by beat, we’re falling apart
But in this light, you look so still
If time won't stop, I know I will.
(Chorus)
Oh, let the world keep spinning ‘round
I’m happy right here, on this ground
With the ghost of your hand inside of mine
Walking a thin and lonely line
It’s a beautiful blue, a bitter sweet gray
Watching the moments slip away
In this melody, I’ll find my home
Even if I have to walk alone.
(Verse 2)
Do you remember how we used to laugh?
Now we’re just a faded photograph
The city lights are starting to glow
But they don’t shine like the you I know
I’m playing the notes you taught me to play
Fm, Db, Ab, Eb... every single day
It’s a simple song for a heavy soul
Trying to make these broken pieces whole.
(Chorus)
Oh, let the world keep spinning ‘round
I’m happy right here, on this ground
With the ghost of your hand inside of mine
Walking a thin and lonely line
It’s a beautiful blue, a bitter sweet gray
Watching the moments slip away
In this melody, I’ll find my home
Even if I have to walk alone.
(Bridge - Arpejos mais intensos na mão direita)
And if the music starts to die
I’ll find a reason not to cry
I’ll keep the fire, I’ll keep the spark
A little light inside the dark...
Inside the dark...
(Outro - Retorna ao toque suave, quase um sussurro)
Fm... Db...
The sky is getting dark now
Ab... Eb...
I’ll see you in the echoes
Just a soul in the city...
Just a heart... beating slow.
(Fine - Uma nota única e profunda no piano)
