Leatherbound Spine in the Oak Aisle

[Intro] [Book Page Turning & Floor Creak] Footsteps silence down the aisle Old paper welcomes us awhile [Verse 1] [Felt Piano & Upright Bass] [Noah] Dark calfskin cover on the cedar shelf [Melody] Hand-stitched binding in the corner nook [Noah] Brass library ladder on its track [Melody] Motes of dust on oak wall [Pre-Chorus] [Muted Trumpet & Brush Snare] Sweet vanilla scent of old glue Finding words that still ring true [Chorus] [Dusty Acoustic Jazz Drop] Gold foil lettering on leatherbound spine Preserving memories of clear design Hidden deep inside this quiet room Where gentle thoughts begin to bloom Turn page, let silence grow Underneath the green banker lamp glow [Verse 2] [Nylon Guitar & Soft Drums] [Noah] Heavy cotton paper yellowed by sun [Melody] Marble endpapers in indigo and rose [Both] Our fingers brush across the script Vintage ink that never slipped [Bridge] [Soulful Vocal Run & Piano Solo] Centuries of wisdom in our hand Sheltered from cold winds of land Ink, leather and a sacred grace [Chorus] [Full Lush Duet Climax] Gold foil lettering on leatherbound spine Preserving memories of clear design Hidden deep inside this quiet room Where gentle thoughts begin to bloom Turn page, let silence grow Underneath the green banker lamp glow [Outro] [Book Closes & Footsteps Fade] Leatherbound spine... Quiet sanctuary. [Fade Out] [End]
