[Verse 1]
Ceiling fan hums
Room turned low
Glass on the nightstand
Slow time flow
Phone on my chest
Screen face-down
Still I feel you move through this side of town
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I breathe in
You’re there
In the quiet
In the cool
Thick air
I don’t say your name
I just see your mouth
Forming all the words we don’t talk about
[Chorus]
I’m thinking of you in the quiet
Without need
Just your shadow on my skin
That’s all I breathe
We don’t have to touch
Don’t have to speak
You’re the ache that feels so free
I’m thinking of you in the quiet
Without need
[Verse 2]
Curtains barely move
Headlights crawl
Your laugh in my head
Soft and small
We never crossed that fragile line
But you color in the edges of my lonely time
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little half-smile
Replayed
I can hear your footsteps fade
We don’t send a word
We don’t make a sound
Still your energy keeps circling round
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
(Male)
Got you on my mind when the streets run out
When the noise dies down
When the room casts doubt
I don’t reach for you
But I feel that heat
Like your hands hovering inches from me
(Female)
We’re both awake in different beds
Same weight resting on our chests
You stay on your side
I’ll stay on mine
Let the wanting be the only line
[Chorus]
