Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Cold tiles on my back Light through the door You were in the next room Playing soft on the chords Not for anyone Not for me Just the way you play when no one’s there [Verse 2] I didn’t move an inch Didn’t make a sound Let the notes fall slow All around Like they’d break if I moved at all Like they’d fade if I stepped outside [Chorus] Everything went still In the space between What I felt and what I couldn’t say You were right there Close as breath Already miles away [Verse 3] Water running slow In the sink Morning sitting still In the glass I could hear your fingers Moving soft Something real Something I let pass [Verse 4] You called out my name Easy, unaware “Are you nearly ready?” from the air I stood up Fixed my face Like nothing in me moved at all [Chorus] Everything went still In the space between What I felt and what I let it be You were right there Close as breath And I chose not to speak [Outro] We kissed at the door Like nothing had changed You rode off like you always do I walked out Same as before That was all there was of you
