Half-Remembered Dream

Intro

*(soft piano swells, breathy hum: ooh-ooh-ahh)*

Verse

In the mist of morning rain

Your shadow bends in the windowpane

A glance across the crowded square

Like threads of smoke in autumn air

Under streetlamps' amber glow

Our steps align, though paths don't show

A brush of sleeves in passing tide

Fate's quiet hand, no place to hide

Verse

Night unfolds its velvet dome

Stars like secrets calling home

Your outline framed in doorway light

A silhouette against the night

Rain pools catch your fleeting stride

Reflections ripple, side by side

No words exchanged, yet eyes entwine

Pulling closer, line by line

Chorus

Do I know you from some half-remembered dream?

Your face a map I've traced in silent streams

Drawn like rivers to the sea

Inevitably, you and me

Oh, this longing carves so deep

Almost yours, in whispers we can't keep

Drawn like rivers to the sea

Inevitably

Verse

Through the fog on winter's breath

Your laughter cuts the chill of death

A turn of corner, there you stand

Fate's invisible, guiding hand

Bells toll slow from towers high

Time bends soft beneath the sky

One more cross, one final plea

The world holds still for you and me

Bridge

And now the hours stretch like silk

The air grows thick, the stars all milk

No rush, no chase, just breath on breath

Everything falls into step

Your hand in mine, the pieces fit

Destiny's hush, our lips now meet

*(piano fades to strings, breathy: ahh-ahh-ahh)*

Chorus

Do I know you from some half-remembered dream?

Your face a map I've traced in silent streams

Drawn like rivers to the sea

Inevitably, you and me

Oh, this longing carves so deep

Almost yours, in whispers we can't keep

Drawn like rivers to the sea

Inevitably

*(soft kiss of piano, fading strings)*

Outro

*(breathy: ooh-ooh, inevitably... inevitably...)*
