In the quiet of the night, I'll let you be... --- ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 0:12 Verse 1 0:36 Pre-Chorus 0:48 Chorus 1:12 Verse 2 1:36 Pre-Chorus 2 1:48 Chorus 2 2:12 Bridge 2:30 Final Chorus 2:54 Outro © 2026 All Rights Reserved. #SadSongs #NighttimeVibes #AcousticPop #AtmosphericMusic #StudyMusic #Melancholic
