0367 Whispered Groove

Late room, low lamp,

the record turns

I let the night move at its own pace

Your glass leaves a ring by the side of the sink Small

proof of a moment that wanted to stick I talk to the

air like it carries your name Half sung,

half said, but it lands the same

I keep my cool slow,

let the backbeat lean Wurlitzer in the corner,

soft and clean You said take your time,

let the good part last So I count each bar and I

loosen my grasp Stay a little longer in the warm half-light Move

a little closer, make the low feel right

I don't need a promise,

just an easy sway We can let the slow groove carry us

away Table for two and the room breathes wide A crack in

your smile and I slip inside No big declaration,

no grand design Just your hand near mine keeping honest time

Kick and snare barely touch,

still the feeling runs Organ paints the edges while the bassline hums

I know when to hold back,

I know when to bend Some nights need a start,

some just need no end

Ah,

keep it low, keep it true

No hard lines, just me and you

Ah,

let it roll, let it breathe

Give me one more second underneath

Stay a little longer in the warm half-light Move a little closer,

make the low feel right I don't need a promise,

just an easy sway We can let the slow groove carry us

away

Take it slow now

Right here will do

Mm, stay close

Till the room turns blue
