Alexis Lynn is back with “Pause,” a relatable and heartfelt single about the pain of long-distance relationships. Whether it’s counting down the days until you can see your significant other again or yearning to finally bridge the gap, long-distance relationships are constantly being tested.

The instrumentals of “Pause” are soft, yet commanding. The heavy utilization of synth sounds on this Pop/R&B anthem creates an atmospheric and modern texture to the track.

However, the harmonies on “Pause” are definitely some of the most impactful parts of the track. Overall, the tone of song is gentle but melancholy. It would be an easy song to swing your hips to, as it feels like Alexis Lynn has generously let us all into her personal daydreams.
