Keep the book without calling a debt.
English duet · Bollywood ballad direction · Portuguese guitarra, guitar and strings
The last entry stops in March as both debtors and creditors leave. The refrain proposes calling it settled; the book stays to remember a whole street that once waited for one another. Boat and winter carry human obligations, not financial advice.
A 72 BPM Bollywood-ballad duet direction meets Portuguese twelve-string guitarra, classical guitar, double bass, distant accordion and warm strings. No one owes a winter retells the same ledger story with changed wording. Compare related editions rather than automatically commissioning two new works.

[Verse 1: Female]
The ledger’s still beneath the counter
Its pages turned the color of the years
The final entry’s dated March
And after March, no one wrote a thing
[Verse 1: Male]
Half the people who owed me left this town
The ones I owed have gone away
The rest could pay me back by now
But no one comes to ask
[Pre-Chorus: Duet]
They made the harbor into a square
There are no accounts to settle there
[Chorus: Duet]
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
No one owes a boat to anyone
No one owes a winter to anyone
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
[Verse 2: Duet]
I keep the book to make no claim
Just to remember how it was
A whole streetful of neighbors then
Each owing, each waiting for the other
[Pre-Chorus: Duet]
They made the harbor into a square
There are no accounts to settle there
[Chorus: Duet]
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
No one owes a boat to anyone
No one owes a winter to anyone
Let’s say we’ve paid it all
