A Song so Sweet v2

(Jin stands near the railing, rain dripping from his hair. Sweet enters with an umbrella, quietly closing it.)

Sweet (spoken, softly, timing 00:20):
You’ve been quiet again... Jin.
It’s been raining for hours.
Even the stars seem afraid to look down tonight.

(Pause — piano continues under her voice.)

Jin (low, cracked voice):
I tried to smile...
But the world keeps slipping through my fingers.

Sweet:
You don’t have to hold everything alone.

Jin (quietly, 00:50):
I know…
But sometimes it feels like I was built to break quietly.

Verse 1 – Jin

Jin (singing, slow & trembling):

(Bm) I walk through the night, no echoes, no name,
(G) Just the sound of my heart calling yours through the rain.
(D) The world is heavy, I’m tired, I’m small—
(A) If I could fall into your arms… I’d lose it all.

Verse 2 – Sweet Joins (01:45)

Sweet (singing, gentle mezzo-soprano):

(Bm) You don’t have to hide, you don’t have to fight,
(G) I’m still here beneath the same fragile light.
(D) If pain is a language, I’ll learn every word,
(A) Just say what you need… it’s all that I’ve heard.

[Spoken Bridge – 02:45]

Jin (spoken, over soft piano):
Sweet…
I don’t need promises. I don’t need forever.
I just—
(beat pause, 2 counts)
I just need your hug right now.

(Piano: pause for 1 full measure, then gentle re-entry on next phrase)

Jin & Sweet (singing in harmony):

(Bm) Just one hug, let the night fall away,
(G) Just one touch, and I’ll find my way.
(D) The storm inside is too loud to stay—
(A) So please… hold me, before I fade away.

Sweet (spoken):
You don’t have to be strong right now.
Just breathe.

Jin (smiles faintly):
Then let me stay here…
Just a little longer.

(Lights fade to black. Final piano note sustained 5 seconds before silence.)
