Under the Strip Lights
Style: Cinematic strings

[Verse 1]
Fingers stop on a cardboard sleeve
Under lights too white to flatter
I forget what I came here for
You're the only sound that matters

[Pre-chorus]
I keep losing my place beside you
Every track I meant to find
Something in me stays enthralled

[Chorus]
Archibald, you don't even try
And still I'm the one enthralled
Something steady, something true
Archibald, I'm yours, plain and called

[Verse 2]
You hold a record like it's precious
Turn it over, read the side
I could watch you do just that
Happily, for the rest of my life

[Bridge]
No music playing, none at all
Just your hands and mine so near
This is the sound I'd choose to keep
This is the one thing I hold dear

[Chorus]
Archibald, you don't even try
And still I'm the one enthralled
Something steady, something true
Archibald, I'm yours, plain and called

[Outro]
Somewhere a needle finds its groove
I found mine, standing next to you
