Midnight Refrain

Lyrics

[Intro]
[Piano and soft rain sounds]
(Ohhh... mmm...)
[Verse 1]
Sitting here past midnight with these melodies in mind
Pressing every key until my feelings finally find
Their way into the silence of this solitary space
While raindrops paint patterns that I wish I could erase
Like memories of us that still remain
[Chorus]
These keys know all my pain
Every note speaks your name
(La la la, oh-oh)
In this midnight refrain
I play through the rain
(La la la, oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Each chord progression tells me what I couldn't say back then
My fingers dancing softly through the could-have-beens
The music fills the emptiness you left here in your wake
While thunder rolls so perfectly with every heart that breaks
And still I can't stop calling out your name
[Chorus]
These keys know all my pain
Every note speaks your name
(La la la, oh-oh)
In this midnight refrain
I play through the rain
(La la la, oh-oh)
[Bridge]
[Strings swell]
Pouring out my heart in minor keys
Learning how to let go gradually
Maybe that's what music's meant to be
A beautiful release
(Ohhh... beautiful release...)
[Final Chorus]
[Full orchestral arrangement]
These keys know all my pain
Every note speaks your name
(La la la, oh-oh)
In this midnight refrain
I'll heal through the rain
(La la la, oh-oh...)
[Outro]
[Piano softens, rain fades]
(Mmm... letting go...)
