Lover

[4 bar guitar intro]

[Verse 1]
I’m sure it’s nothing,
Playful words meant to tease.
Familiar comfort in the chaos,
A language we speak so fluently.

[Verse 2]
It’s only kindness,
Supporting my every dream.
I’m stealing all your precious time,
But you give it so willingly.

[Chorus]
I hear your voice, it fades away.
I’m drowning in feelings I’ll never name.
I keep my distance, let you go.
I’m waiting in silence and hoping in vain.
Never yours… wanting more…
[whispered] Lover

[Verse 3]
Maybe it’s something,
That smile that’s just for me.
Devotion dripping from those fangs,
The rest of the world won’t ever see.

[Chorus]
I hear your voice, it fades away.
I’m drowning in feelings I’ll never name.
I keep my distance, let you go,
I’m waiting in silence and hoping in vain.
Am I yours? I need more…
[whispered] Lover

[Bridge, building]
You’re my
Secret cravin’ 
Safest haven
The only one I trust
To catch me when I fall
You’re my
Roman Empire
Favorite livewire 
We’ve got the world waiting
On our curtain call

[Chorus, happier]
I hear your voice, it says my name,
I’m basking in futures written in ink.
You close the distance, let me know,
I’m waiting beside you, heartbeats in sync.
Pull me close… say it slow…
[whispered] Lover
