Fireworks Tonight

[Intro] (Chopped soul vocal sample: "Ooh, floating...") (Instrumental: slow tape warble, pad synths, hazy synths, vinyl crackle) [Verse 1] The beach crowd thins, we h**g back, just two. Your hoodie on my shoulder, the sand still warm. No need to talk, the waves do all the work. We sit close, keep each other from the cold. [Chorus] Up on the penthouse balcony, so wide, Colors burst above the pier, nowhere to hide. We could stay right here till the morning breaks, This feeling, I won’t forget, for all our sakes. Just you and me, the city down below, Promise I’ll remember how we took it slow. [Verse 2] From the balcony, the rockets paint the dark, Red and Blue blooms, we watch them arc. Your hand on the railing, the metal cool, We laugh at how the world feels like a jewel. Anniversary glow, it fills the air, But up here, I only see your hair, Blowing in the breeze, so real and fine, This moment’s ours, a perfect design. [B**t Switch] (Chopped soul vocal sample repeats heavily: “Mmm, stay right here… stay right here…” Backing ad-libs: (soul-influenced) Ooh yeah, oh oh oh, gonna remember this…) Ooh, we got no rush, no need to leave, We’re up in the penthouse, just breathe. All we need is this view and the sound, Of the traffic below, feet off the ground. Yeah, we’ll keep this warm, let it grow, Nobody else has to know. [Chorus] Up on the penthouse balcony, so wide, Colors burst above the pier, nowhere to hide. We could stay right here till the morning breaks, This feeling, I won’t forget, for all our sakes. Just you and me, the city down below, Promise I’ll remember how we took it slow. [Instrumental Bridge] (Instrumental: reverbed sample, lush pads) [Chorus] Up on the penthouse balcony, so wide, Colors burst above the pier, nowhere to hide. We could stay right here till the morning breaks, This feeling, I won’t forget, for all our sakes. Just you and me, the city down below, Promise I’ll remember how we took it slow. [Outro] (Instrumental: slow fade, atmospheric)
