Diana Krall - Classy Lounge Feel Smooth Jazz
[Intro] 
 0:00
Verse 1 
 0:08
Smoke curls slow in a midnight room 
 0:08
Piano leans into a fragile tune 
 0:16
Your shadow sways where the blue lights stay 
 0:24
We’re almost something… one note away 
 0:28
Your fingers trace what we never say 
 0:36
A half-held breath in a soft cliché 
 0:44
The chord hangs loose, it wants to stay 
 0:52
But it don’t resolve… it fades to gray 
 0:55
Pre-Chorus 
 1:03
There’s a tremble in the minor key 
 1:03
Like you’re reaching out but not to me 
 1:07
Chorus 
 1:12
We’re one note away from a perfect song 
 1:12
One word shy of where we belong 
 1:17
Close enough to feel the flame 
 1:21
Far enough to miss the spark 
 1:23
We’re leaning in but holding back 
 1:25
A harmony that fades to black 
 1:29
Oh love, why do we always play 
 1:33
One note away? 
 1:38
Verse 2 
 1:44
Your laughter bends like a saxophone 
 1:44
Warm and wild but alone 
 1:48
We improvise what we’re scared to face 
 1:52
Dancing ‘round that empty space 
 1:56
I see the truth in your tired eyes 
 2:00
A bridge we cross but never arrive 
 2:04
The melody knows where it should go 
 2:08
But we let it drift… soft and low 
 2:11
Pre-Chorus 
 2:19
There’s a silence where the high note lives 
 2:19
Like a heart that wants but won’t forgive 
 2:23
Chorus 
 2:28
We’re one note away from a perfect song 
 2:28
One touch short of holding on 
 2:33
Close enough to taste the wine 
 2:37
Far enough to draw the line 
 2:40
We’re almost brave, almost true 
 2:41
Almost me and almost you 
 2:46
Oh darling, why do we stay 
 2:53
One note away? 
 2:58
Bridge 
 3:03
Maybe the note is a word unsaid 
 3:03
Maybe it’s pride, maybe it’s fear instead 
 3:07
Maybe it’s one small step across the floor 
 3:11
One “stay” whispered at the door 
 3:16
What if the chord just needs release? 
 3:19
What if surrender sounds like peace? 
 3:23
Final Chorus 
 3:26
We’re one note away from letting go 
 3:28
Or one note close to letting it show 
 3:33
Close enough to change our fate 
 3:37
If we dare to modulate 
 3:39
No more almost, no delay 
 3:41
Let the music find its way 
 3:45
Oh love… we don’t have to stay 
 3:48
One note away.Piano lingers… soft decay 
 3:54
Still suspended… 
 4:07
One note away. 
 4:11
