{electric piano chords, gentle vinyl crackle,
distant vocal ad-libs} (ooh-yeah,
baby) {soft finger snaps
enter}
Lying awake at three in the morning
Watching the steady rise and fall of your chest
I used to think my heart was guarded
But you put all my fears
to rest
(mmmmm) And every single day
I find a new reason
To give you everything I have {music swells
slightly, adding gentle percussion} 'Cause you are the anchor in my storm
With you is the only place I feel warm
I spill my whole heart on the floor tonight
Just to make sure that I treat
you right
(yeah,
treat you right)
{full R&B groove, deep analog bass} I know I don't always say
it out loud
Sometimes the world gets too noisy to hear
But when I look at you I feel so proud
Just promise me you'll stay near (oh-oh-oh)
Just you and me
Underneath
the quiet room
(forever baby)
{music fades out, leaving only the electric piano and a final vocal
run} (mmmmm-hmm)
