A thin light falls across your skin
Neon shadows move again
Every time you lower your eyes
My heartbeat starts to rise
Night wind brushes through my hand
Calling back what used to stand
Traces of the touch remain
I keep watching time in vain
Midnight Scent
Falling on my shoulder bare
If I tried to speak this heat
It would vanish in the air
Through the glass
City lights begin to swim
Every time you touch me close
I dissolve into the night
We're too near to stay this calm
Breathing warmth from arm to arm
Every blink I fail to keep
Wakes a self I buried deep
Every smile can break my guard
So I hide my fragile heart
Every time I pray don't see
Beautiful shadows grow in me
Silent scent
Sliding softly through my hands
Loneliness I thought had gone
Starts to wake again
In your eyes
Slowly melting all I knew
Every time you touch me close
I dissolve into the blue
If tonight
Turns itself into the dawn
I don't want
This warmth to be gone
If I say your name
Everything may fall apart
So I stay in silence
Watching where the dark hearts start
Midnight Scent
Falling on my shoulder bare
If I tried to speak this heat
It would vanish in the air
Through the glass
City lights begin to swim
Every time you touch me close
I dissolve into the night

Midnight Scent
Masahiro Yanagiya
An elegant 1980s Japanese-style city pop ballad with a deep sophisticated female vocal.
Subtle Latin rhythm, rich bass, luxurious strings, and nocturnal city lights create quiet passion, melancholy, and refined romantic tension.
