My Reverie (From "A Small Light: Episode 4")

HAUNT ME

“Shadow Keeps the Frame” is a poetic, acoustic ballad that explores the lingering presence of a past love. Through intimate imagery and restrained emotion, the narrator traces the memory of someone who remains etched in everyday spaces—reflected in windows, stitched into silence, and woven into the rhythm of night. The song moves through quiet verses and swelling choruses, capturing the tension between forgetting and holding on. With a warm, wistful tone, it evokes the feeling of walking through a familiar room haunted by absence, where even the light seems to remember.

🎶 Lyrics: “Shadow Keeps the Frame”
(by MOBest)

[Intro]  
Soft synth-free space; one breath before the voice.

[Verse 1]  
I trace your shadow on the window glass, a cobalt ache,  
A silhouette that lingers where the streetlight breaks,  
Each silent corner hums the echo of your name,  
I walk a map of memory where only ghosts remain.

[Pre-Chorus]  
Breath held in the hush; the distance thins again,  
A filament of longing threads me to your skin.

[Chorus]  
Can't get you out of my head; you circle like a song,  
One trembling note that pulls me and won't move on,  
Round and round the chorus keeps me bound to your flame,  
Can't get you out of my head; I can't forget your name.

[Verse 2]  
Your laugh is sunlight stitched into the seams of night,  
A stubborn ray that wakes me where the river hides,  
I trade the present for a glance, barter time for view,  
Counting constellations that spell only you.

[Verse 3]  
Midnight confesses things the day will never say,  
I keep the silence between us like a secret bay,  
Fingers find the places that the daylight cannot heal,  
We make rooms in the small hours only we can feel.

[Bridge]  
If memory is ocean, I'm breathing salt and blue,  
And in that deep the only shape that moves is you.

[Verse 4]  
Dawn erases edges but your color stays the same,  
A mark upon the skyline, an unextinguished flame,  
I stitch the hours backward until the night returns,  
And in the hush between the beats the old obsession burns.

[Reprise]  
La la la, the echo tightens; la la la, the echo knows;  
La la la, your heartbeat woven through my clothes.

[Chorus Final]  
Can't get you out of my head; you circle like a song,  
One trembling note that pulls me and won't move on,  
Round and round the chorus keeps me bound to your flame,  
Can't get you out of my head; I can't forget your name.

[Outro]  
I close the window quietly; your shadow keeps the frame.
