Jeremy & Tisha

[Intro – gentle acoustic guitar strums, soft piano arpeggios] Sunlight spills on the fire escape Coffee steam curls up to fade [Verse 1 – steady shaker rhythm, warm bass line] Jeremy had a beat-up bike with a rusted bell Tisha carried a sketchbook where she’d draw the world They’d sit on the curb watching cars roll by Talking ‘bout the stars and the way time flies [Pre-Chorus – subtle string swells, building warmth] No plans, no clocks, just the summer air Laughing ‘til their sides hurt, no one else cared Every moment felt like it would never end Like the sun would always hang above the bend [Chorus – full acoustic band, layered vocal harmonies] Jeremy & Tisha, summer of ‘17 Sticky ice cream cones and worn-out jeans Dancing in the rain when the storm rolled in Memories that still feel like they’re happening [Verse 2 – added xylophone chimes, soft snare taps] Jeremy found a radio that played old soul Tisha painted his portrait with a charcoal bowl They snuck into the park after closing time Swung on the swings ‘til the first light of dawn [Pre-Chorus 2 – richer string arrangement, louder harmonies] No phones, no noise, just their favorite songs Trading secrets ‘til the fireflies came on Every second felt like a perfect rhyme Like the moon would always light up their climb [Chorus 2 – upbeat tambourine, more prominent piano] Jeremy & Tisha, summer of ‘17 Scuffed-up sneakers and a stolen melody Hiding from the rain in a old oak tree Memories that still feel like home to me [Bridge – stripped back acoustic guitar, soft vocal solo] Years passed by, they went their separate ways Chasing dreams in different kinds of haze But when they meet, it’s like no time has gone Like they’re still sitting on that old curb, young [Chorus 3 – full band climax, soaring harmonies] Jeremy & Tisha, summer of ‘17 Worn-out stories and a love that’s still clean Dancing in the rain when the storm rolled in Memories that will never, ever end [Outro – fading acoustic guitar, soft piano fade] Sunlight spills on the fire escape Coffee steam curls up to fade
