[Intro]
Am7 – Dm7 – G13 – Cmaj7
Mmm… yeah, baby… come a little closer…
[Verse 1]
Am7
You say you had a long day,
Dm7
Feelin’ like the world’s gone cold,
G13
Come lay your worries on me,
Cmaj7
Let my arms be the place you hold.
Am7
Turn the noise to nothin’,
Dm7
Let the shadows do their thing,
G13
I’ll kiss away the tension,
Cmaj7
You won’t feel a single thing…
[Chorus]
Fmaj7
With the lights down low,
G13
Let your sweet love show,
Em7
No rush, no need to go—
Am7
Just take it nice and slow.
Fmaj7
We got time to burn,
G13
Every touch, we’ll learn…
Em7
What heaven’s made of, baby,
Am7
With the lights down low.
[Verse 2]
Am7
Your perfume’s in the silence,
Dm7
Soft jazz on the stereo,
G13
Your silhouette’s a promise,
Cmaj7
That I already know…
Am7
No spotlight needed, darling,
Dm7
You’re the fire in the night,
G13
Let passion be our rhythm,
Cmaj7
And your heartbeat be the light…
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
Fmaj7
Let the world keep turnin’,
Em7
We don’t need to know…
Dm7
All I want is you, right here,
G13
Where your love can overflow…
[Final Chorus – Soft, then building]
Fmaj7
With the lights down low,
G13
Let our true hearts show,
Em7
Every kiss, every sigh—
Am7
Like stars in afterglow.
Fmaj7
We got time to burn,
G13
No need to ever learn—
Em7
Love this deep just flows…
Am7
With the lights down low…
[Outro – Whispered]
Am7
Mmm… lights down low, baby…
G13
That’s when our love shows…
Cmaj7
Yeah, just like that… slow…
