Sidewalk steam kisses ankles Neon hums our names You twirl a pink straw I laugh, lose my aim You say keep it tender I nod, stoke the flame Coat sleeves hide the tremble Keys rain soft and slow You lean like a secret I lean, let it show stay so close say it slow Paper crown tilts sideways Cherry gloss on glass Boot prints write our story The crosswalk ticks us on You say truth runs messy—lipstick on the rim I smile, let that last Snare snaps, nerves settle Heart lands two and four Your name rings like cymbal I ache, want one more stay this close say it soft You blot off the gloss; I clear a fogged pane— wrong hand, right hand, ours. stay so close say it slow — city snow hushes the snare
Instructional lyrics
[Intro vinyl hiss, soft pad] [Tag 2b delay bloom] [Verse 1] Sidewalk steam kisses ankles Neon hums our names You twirl a pink straw I laugh, lose my aim You say keep it tender I nod, stoke the flame [Pre rise] Coat sleeves hide the tremble Keys rain soft and slow You lean like a secret I lean, let it show [Break 2b stop] [Chorus impact two-line A A] stay so close say it slow [Verse 2] Paper crown tilts sideways Cherry gloss on glass Boot prints write our story Time chooses to pass You say truth gets messy I smile, let that last [Pre rise] Snare snaps, nerves settle Heart lands two and four Your name rings like cymbal I ache, want one more [Break 2b stop] [Chorus impact two-line A A] stay so close say it slow [Bridge strip vox+Rhodes] No mask tonight Choose wrong or right [Final Chorus bigger, stacked call-response] stay so close say it slow stay so close say it slow [Chorus x2] [Outro 4b tape fade]
