Slow Sighs Chicago

{warm vinyl crackle, slow double bass intro,

brushed snare pattern, soft piano

chords} (hummmmm) The rain falls on the empty street

The city slows

its hurried beat

We find our shelter

in the dark

A quiet room,

a single spark

{soft muted trumpet counter-melody}

Slow down, let the record spin

Let the quiet world breathe in (ahhhh)

No rush, just the space between

The softest song you've ever seen

{piano-vocal unison melody} {muted trumpet solo,

expressive blues bends, lazy

tempo

placement}

The hours pass like drifting smoke

A gentle word,

a phrase you spoke

We let the shadows play their part

And rest the rhythm

of the heart

Just spin... Slow down...

(hummmm) {instruments slowly fade out,

final piano chord rings,

vinyl crackle continues}
