Intro

(Gentle blues, cha-cha-cha rhythm)

(Soft whisper, reverb-drenched guitar and saxophone sounds)

Verse 1

(Divine female vocals, soft, breathy)

Your silhouette melts in the window's haze,

Like cigarette smoke you left unsmoked.

I know the curve of your palms by heart,

But my soul hasn't slept in them for ages.

Pre-Chorus

(Divine female vocals, voice begins to tremble)

And every evening is a silent masquerade,

Where I am the shadow, and you are my unreachable light.

And I whisper...

Chorus

(Divine female vocals, strained, with pain)

I love you 'til my voice is hoarse, 'til salty tears are on my lips,
