When that day comes
heartfelt spoken-word / indie R&B song—reflective, warm, intimate. It’s designed with a mellow, lo-fi beat in mind, soft keys, and a moody bassline. You could imagine it sung or half-spoken in a style like James Blake, Frank Ocean

Lyrics
“When That Day Comes”
Verse 1 – soft piano, mellow groove
No need to say it now,
It’s been a long, loud day somehow.
But there’s something I’ve been holding,
And it’s time I let it out.
When that day comes,
When you walk away from all the noise, all the numb—
I’ll be there, arms open wide,
Waiting where the stillness hides.
Pre-Chorus – gentle chords rise
The next chapter, or maybe the rest of the book,
You and me—come take a look.
Peace in our pockets,
Bad games, good food,
Stupid laughs and you… falling asleep on my chest like you used to.
Chorus – warm, emotional hook
It’s unexpected—
But it’s real, yeah, it’s deep.
Didn’t plan to feel this much,
Now it’s something I want to keep.
You don’t need to say a thing,
But I’ll still be mad about you
In the best way—yeah, in the best way.
Verse 2 – stripped back, half-spoken
I think I’ve…
Well, I’ll be honest,
I’m a little scared to speak it loud—don’t wanna jinx what we’ve found.
But yeah…
It’s there.
It’s been growing, quiet, everywhere.
Bridge – ambient, dreamy section
Rest up now, go enjoy your movie.
Sink into the calm, let the world pass slowly.
No need to thank me—
(Okay maybe a little… with a side of canning, please, lol)
You’re my witchy woman,
Melf in the moonlight,
Casting spells on my soul
Every night.
Final Chorus – reprise, more layered harmony
It’s unexpected—
But it’s real, yeah, it’s deep.
Didn’t plan to fall like this,
But now it’s something I need.
So when that day comes,
I’ll be right here, same place, same beat—
Mad about you
In the best way…
Yeah, in the best way.
Outro – fading keys, whispered line
No need to say it now...
Just rest.
I’ve got the rest.
