BEFORE WE KNEW
Style Slow cinematic male synth-pop / dream-pop. Warm nostalgic tone with emotional restraint. Feels like a quiet moment before everything becomes important. Mood Tender, longing, soft intimacy. Not sad — unaware happiness with underlying tension. Late-night drifting toward sunrise. Tempo & Rhythm Slow: 78–84 BPM Minimal beat Gentle pulse rather than groove Breathing space between phrases

Lyrics
Verse 1
Midnight
Streetlight caught
In your hair
Balcony air
Nothing to say
Didn’t name it
Didn’t need proof
Everything easy
Before the truth
(Whisper) Before the truth
… Before the truth
Pre-Chorus
No silence yet
No careful lines
Chorus
Before we knew
Before we tried to be wise
You were just you
And I didn’t think twice
No distance
No end in view
We didn’t hold back
Before we knew
Verse 2
We walked past the last train home
Just to keep talking
Morning came quietly
Without warning
Bridge
I think we loved
Without the word
That’s why it hurt
Final Chorus
Before we knew
We never hid
Nothing was fragile
Because nothing was fixed
Outro
We didn’t hold it
We didn’t try
That’s why it stays
Untouched by time
