[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Cigarette smoke curls in the hazy light
A bassline walks through the velvet night
Piano keys spill like midnight rain
Whispered dreams on a saxophone’s refrain
Streetlamp glow on the wet pavement gleams
Lost in this rhythm, these slow-b*****g dreams
[Chorus]
Oh, this Midnight Reverie
Where the shadows dance so free
Pour me another glass of blue
While the trumpet cries just for you
In this haze of melody
Our sweet Midnight Reverie
[Verse 2]
Moonlight traces your silhouette slow
As the drummer brushes soft, soft and low
We sway in time where the secrets hide
Two silhouettes on the turning tide
Your laugh, a riff, bright and bittersweet
A syncopated heartbeat, cool and complete
[Chorus]
Oh, this Midnight Reverie
Where the shadows dance so free
Pour me another glass of blue
While the trumpet cries just for you
In this haze of melody
Our sweet Midnight Reverie
[Bridge]
The city sighs beyond the door
A muted horn sighs for more
This fragile world the night has made
In every note, a promise laid
Fades with the dawn, a memory
This fleeting, timeless reverie
[Solo]
(Trumpet solo soars, cool and lyrical)
(Piano responds, gentle and lyrical)
[Chorus]
Oh, this Midnight Reverie
Where the shadows dance so free
Pour me another glass of blue
While the trumpet cries just for you
In this haze of melody
Our sweet Midnight Reverie
[Outro]
(Vocal scatting softly intertwines with fading piano and brushwork)
(Double bass walks down low, final piano chord rings, trumpet breathes one last sigh)
(Soft cymbal swell fades to silence)
