BETWEEN US

[Intro: Rhodes piano, soft bass, atmospheric vocals, intimate]

Three hearts, one night
Same moon, different eyes
One secret in the silence
One love we can't disguise

[Verse 1: warm male vocal, smooth R&B delivery]

I saw you standing underneath the neon
Laughing like the whole world disappeared
I tried to hide it, tried to play it cool
But every time you smile, I pull you near

You don't know what you do to me
You don't know what I can't say
If I tell you that I love you
Would you turn and walk away?

[Pre-Chorus: male vocal building, female harmony enters]

A:
I've been waiting for the right time

B:
Maybe there was never one

A:
If I lose you when I tell you

B:
Then what have we become?

[Chorus: energetic K-pop R&B, layered male and female vocals]

A:
We're caught between us

B:
A little love, a little too much

A:
Every heartbeat says your name

B:
But I'm scared to make a change

A + B:
Three hearts, one night
Same moon, different eyes
We're caught between us
Between your heart and mine

[Verse 2: bright female vocal, emotional but confident]

I never meant to make a promise
I never meant to cross that line
But when he holds my hand, I feel it
And when you call, you're on my mind

There's a shadow in my bedroom
Every question keeps me awake
If I choose the love I started
What happens to the love I can't erase?

[Pre-Chorus: female vocal, deeper male harmony underneath]

B:
I don't wanna hurt somebody

C:
But you're already hurting me

B:
Maybe love is not a straight line

C:
Maybe we're afraid to see

[Chorus: fuller instrumentation, funky bass, dance-pop groove]

B:
We're caught between us

C:
A little love, a little too much

B:
Every heartbeat says your name

C:
But I'm scared to make a change

B + C:
Three hearts, one night
Same moon, different eyes
We're caught between us
Between your heart and mine

[Dance Break: funky bass, jazz guitar, tight drums, vocal ad-libs]

Oh-oh, between us
Oh-oh, don't let me go
Oh-oh, three hearts
But nobody knows

[Bridge: deeper male vocal, stripped-back Rhodes and strings]

C:
I knew you had somebody
I knew I crossed the line
But every time you look at me
I wish that you were mine

I don't wanna steal your heartbeat
I don't wanna be the one
Who turns your love into a memory
Before your story's even done

[Final Chorus: all three vocals, emotional K-pop climax, layered harmonies]

A:
We're caught between us

B:
A little love, a little too much

C:
Three hearts beating out of time

A + B + C:
And nobody knows whose heart is mine

A:
If I stay, I might lose you

B:
If I leave, I lose myself

C:
If we love, somebody breaks

All:
But we can't turn this off tonight

Three hearts, one night
Same moon, different eyes
We're caught between us
No place left to hide

Three hearts, one love
One choice we can't undo
We're caught between us
Me, you, and you

[Outro: soft Rhodes, fading harmonies]

A:
I loved you first

C:
I loved you too

B:
I wish I knew
What love was supposed to do

All:
Three hearts...
One night...
Between us...
