- Translation
- With You I read your words. I stare at the screen. I wonder. Life can be so mean. I want to help. I pick up my phone. I wait while it rings. I hope you're at home. You share your life. I share mine too. We're here for each other. It helps get us through. The knocks and blows. Our joys and dreams. I want you to know. How much you mean. Just have to say thanks. For always being there. Showing up. You always care. Writing this song. I hope you'll hear. I'll be here for you too. Year after year.
About the song
An intimate fantasy ballad and cinematic acoustic soundtrack about friendship, distance, and the promise to stay. Closely-miked acoustic guitar, soft upright bass, one sustained piano note, and two voices, the second joining only for the final line.
The title means I Will Stay, the promise that closes the cycle. This is music for the message sent across the distance, for the words read on a screen, and for the phone ringing in the dark. It speaks to anyone who has stayed awake worrying about a friend, and who knows that presence can be a voice on the other end of a line.
Part of The Worlds of Neon and the Neon Worlds universe, this track is perfect for fans of intimate singer-songwriter music, quiet cinematic soundtracks, and songs that sound like they were recorded in one take. It is ideal for writing, for late nights, for the moments after a hard call, and for anyone who believes that friendship is not a feeling you have but a thing you do. Again, and again, and again.
A fantasy ballad built with fingerpicked guitar, a single sustained piano note, and the simplest promise in the entire cycle.
