(Emotional acoustic ballad with soft symphonic elements.

Slow tempo (65–80 BPM). Tragic, melancholic, intimate. Minor key.

Male vocals: clean, high, emotional. Fragile and almost whispered in verses,

soaring but controlled in choruses. No growling, no screaming.

Instruments: acoustic guitar (fingerpicked, prominent), piano (soft, leading melody),

strings (subtle, not overpowering), cello, soft choir,

solo soprano (wordless, operatic) in intro and outro.

No electric guitars, no heavy drums, no double bass.

Drums: soft brushes or light percussion only.

Atmosphere: loneliness, waiting, a man keeping a light on for someone

who may never return. Intimate, cinematic, deeply emotional.

Avoid electric distortion, fast tempos, heavy drums, and aggressive sounds.

Structure:

- Intro: ethereal wordless soprano solo, soft piano and acoustic guitar, no drums

- Verse 1: clean high male vocals, almost whispered, piano and acoustic guitar only

- Pre-chorus: strings enter softly, light percussion, vocals grow
