The city's asleep, but my heart’s awake,
Counting the beats that your name still makes.
Lights on the ceiling fade in time,
With every pulse, I cross that line.
I said I’d move on, but I still replay,
Your shadow moves in my veins that way.
Can’t slow it down, it’s too alive,
This quiet ache I can’t disguise.
Heartbeat after midnight,
Still echoes your goodbye.
Soft rhythm in the silence,
I feel you every time.
Heartbeat after midnight,
Still dancing under my skin.
I’m calm but never fine
Still yours within the spin.
Moonlight drips through the open blinds,
Your scent still lingers between the lines.
I’m breathing slow, but I can’t pretend,
This steady thump won’t ever end.
Every breath’s a memory’s sound,
You’re gone but I’m still spellbound.
I chase your ghost in every sigh,
A quiet storm, a lullaby.
Heartbeat after midnight,
Still echoes your goodbye.
Soft rhythm in the silence,
I feel you every time.
Heartbeat after midnight,
Still dancing under my skin.
I’m calm but never fine
Still yours within the spin.
If I could turn the sound off now,
Would I even know how?
My heart keeps time with what we were,
A rhythm made of you, it won’t blur.
Heartbeat after midnight,
Fading slow but still alive.
Every beat reminds me why
You’re the pulse I can’t untie.
