Dim light wraps around us, velvet soft and low
Leanin’ close across the table, where the shadows go
Ice cubes clink like secrets, heavy on the lips
Truths we’ve buried deep, now whispered in the dips
The room’s alive with rhythm, but it's quiet in this space
You speak in half-formed sentences, lost in your own grace
Back booth confessions, traded on a sigh
Words we never dared to speak, beneath the painted eye
The bass line hums our story, the sax speaks our plea
Pourin' out the hidden chapters, just for you and me
Fingers trace the water rings, like maps of where we’ve been
Unlockin’ all the buried things, let the truth begin
The air is thick with meaning, as the smoke starts to rise
You look at me with open eyes, and we drop the disguise
The piano plays soft secrets, blues wrapped in gold
Every note is a confession, every chord is bold
I hear your voice crack, and the walls start to fall
We’re just two souls speakin’, no barriers at all
Back booth confessions, whispered in the dark
No one else can hear us, but we’re leaving a mark
The bass line sets the pace, the saxophone’s the key
Pourin’ out the hidden chapters, just for you and me
Check’s paid, but the story lingers, floatin’ in the air
We step into the cool night, but the truth’s still there
Leavin' whispers in the velvet, no more weight to bear
In the back booth, we found a peace we didn’t know was there
