The Left-Behind Cup - Noa Ridley (Official Audio)

a cup on the porch rail, cold coffee, morning sun on the timber 🏝️ Warm tropical-house at 118 bpm with plucked synths, soft mallets and organic claps, made for a quiet sunlit morning after a goodbye. Listen to the full catalog:    / @noaridleymusic   for the porch rail... there is a mug on the porch rail, half full of cold coffee, and the sun has found it. you are wondering if they are coming back up the steps or if you should finally pour it out. the goodbye was quiet and nothing got settled, and the morning feels suspended because of it. the left-behind cup is sitting on the open ledge, while sunlight climbs the balcony edge. a little ring of brown against the weathered wood, staying put right where it always did. for anyone standing by the open door, breathing in the valley breeze and looking at a small trace of someone. put it on while you drink your own coffee slowly on the steps and let the morning start. do you leave the cup where it is, or let the morning light do all the work? if you like melodic pop and chilled tropical house, this sits right beside them. a honeyed close-mic voice over warm rolling bass and soft mallets, and the sun does the rest. my shadow stretches across the porch board floor while the morning stays quiet. it feels like a gentle ache, warm on the surface and a little unsure underneath. we didn't have to break apart, and we left our hesitation sitting right outside. Lyrics The left-behind cup is waiting on the timber rail Where morning wind is carrying a distant sail Your porcelain white is catching all the amber sun Before our quiet morning had officially begun The coffee settled down into a heavy ring We didn't have to break apart or break a string The steps are quiet and the garden grass is wide We left our hesitation sitting right outside The painted handle turned away from where you stood Before we let it go and understood we could A little ring of brown against the weathered wood Just staying put right where we always knew it would The left-behind cup is sitting on the open ledge While sunlight climbs across the wooden balcony edge A little amber memory of how we stayed Before the warmth of conversation slowly fade Oh, look at the left-behind cup You left it resting right beside the open door My shadow stretches out across the porch board floor The valley breeze is moving through the quiet trees While I am standing here and breathing in the breeze The painted handle turned away from where you stood Before we let it go and understood we could A little ring of brown against the weathered wood Just staying put right where we always knew it would The left-behind cup is sitting on the open ledge While sunlight climbs across the wooden balcony edge A little amber memory of how we stayed Before the warmth of conversation slowly fade Oh, look at the left-behind cup Nobody has to come and wash the trace away We let the morning light do all the work today The valley air is moving through the quiet space Without a footprint left across the gravel place The left-behind cup is sitting on the open ledge While sunlight climbs across the wooden balcony edge A little amber memory of how we stayed Before the warmth of conversation slowly fade Oh, look at the left-behind cup Just a ceramic circle sitting in the sun Noa Ridley is a virtual artist.
