Slow Rise Lounge

{glowing acoustic piano chords,

warm major key with bittersweet major-seventh extensions,

soft brushed snare, slow bass slide,

90 BPM, key of G major}

The glass is dry,

the chairs are turned To face the wall

We lived the lessons that we learned

And let them fall {close-mic human vocal,

unhurried singer-songwriter delivery, light double-bass plucks} And now the lights come up

so slow

(so slow) Across the room,

we watch them grow

And it is time

to go

{swelling string quartet, lush vocal harmonies blooming on final words,

glowing piano chords}

A quiet trace of where we stood

Is in the air

We held the moments that we could

And left them there {hushed drums,

warm piano, soft acoustic guitar double,

intimate close vocal}

And now the lights come up so slow (so slow)

Across the room, we watch them grow

And it is time

to go

{full emotional string arrangement,

rich

vocal harmonies, warm piano,

swelling dynamic}

Time to go {ambient synth haze,

soft decay of piano notes,

fading brushed percussion, strings

lingering into silence}
