Lyric

Each ice cube chimes, and silence unwinds

Neon breath paints the night in glowing lines

The wall clock scratches memories in time

A single empty seat holds a quiet sigh

Hands move gently, swirling the glass

The cocktail holds a rainbow, calm as it lies

A drop of light trembles through my chest

Unlocking memories I tried to suppress

Rainbow in the glass, light on my cheek

Even faded pasts regain the hues they seek

A sip of warmth untangles the heart

Sending little sparks to strangers afar

Outside, taxis blur in the rainy glow

Rain on my shoulder melts into the show

Loosened tie, laughter’s shadow in the air

Still swaying gently in someone’s stare

Sway of the tipsy night frees the chains

Heartbeat pulses start to overlap in lanes

Rainbow in the glass, when our drinks meet

Lonely rhythms blend into a single beat

Transparent bubbles unravel our voice

In a fleeting night, encounters rejoice

Dawn approaches, the magic thins

The scent on fingertips lingers within

Stepping toward tomorrow, we move apart

Yet the heartbeat in the chest still sings in part

Rainbow in the glass, the final sip

Transparent echoes fill the heart’s empty slip

Outside closed doors, the cold wind may blow

But warmth we shared tonight still flows

Ice melts away, silence returns

The nameless smile you gave still burns

Trembling softly, in my eyes it stays

A quiet prism that lights the gaze
