Piano Keys Under Snow (version 3)

Verse

Steam on the window, keys still warm

Last chord fading into the gray

City's sleeping five floors down

I don't need it to stay awake

Frost on my jacket, taxi lights blink

Every block looks like a photograph

Paper cup of coffee gone cold

Still I'm humming where we sat

Pre-Chorus

Is this ending or just a pause

Snowflakes falling slow and soft

Something quiet is building

In the silence left behind

Chorus

Piano keys under snow tonight

Softly glowing in the amber light

I let go of every note I made

Because the hush is louder than the shade

Verse 2

Blanket folded on my shoulders

Radio tuned to static white

Every door I passed today

Felt like saying goodnight

Bassline still in my ribcage

Dancing through the empty hall

Nothing left to hold or keep

Just the weightlessness of all

Pre-Chorus

Is this ending or just a pause

Snowflakes falling slow and soft

Something quiet is building

In the silence left behind

Chorus

Piano keys under snow tonight

Softly glowing in the amber light

I let go of every note I made

Because the hush is louder than the shade

Bridge

No encore, no final bow

Just the quiet that remains

Every chord we've ever known

Fading into winter rain

Chorus

Piano keys under snow tonight

Softly glowing in the amber light

I let go of every note I made

Because the hush is louder than the shade
