The Matchbook Riff

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain on the street
Slow rhythmic beat
Boston is still
Chasing a thrill
Brownstones in line
Frozen in time
[Pre-Chorus]
Fog on the glass
Watching you pass
Shadows that play
Fading away
[Chorus]
Just a fleeting riff
A sudden what-if
Like a martini glass
Watching the hours pass
We were a summer song
Where do we belong?
[Verse]
The club door is barred
Life hit us hard
I find a match
A memory to catch
Ink on the fold
Stories of gold
[Bridge]
Muted trombone sighs
Under the dark skies
The Rhodes starts to weep
Secrets we keep
Bass walking slow
Nowhere to go
[Solo]
[Verse]
Velvet and smoke
The words that we spoke
Half-empty gin
Where do I begin?
Brief as a spark
Lost in the dark
[Chorus]
Just a fleeting riff
A sudden what-if
Like a martini glass
Watching the hours pass
We were a summer song
Where do we belong?
[Post-Chorus]
(Scat) Shoo-bee-doo-bah
(Scat) Da-da-da-dah
(Scat) Bee-bop-a-loo
Thinking of you
(Scat) Shoo-bee-doo-bah
(Scat) Da-da-da-dah
[Outro]
