A song that comes from this: "I love the way you speak my name, Yet wonder if you feel the same, Or if I’m reading stars in glass, Waiting for the glow to pass. If I should reach to hold your hand, Would I be building on the sand? The higher that this feeling grows, The more I fear the heavy blows. I’m paralyzed by "what might be," And shadows only I can see; For if I lose the heart I’ve found, I’ll never touch the solid ground. I trace the patterns of your smile, And beg my heart to rest a while. But in the quiet of my head, I weave a web of doubt instead. I’m parsing every look you give, To find the space where "we" might live, Yet fear that if I speak too loud, I’ll chase the sun behind a cloud. I crave the warmth, I want the fire, But dread the fall if I climb higher. Is this a bridge to somewhere new, Or just a ledge with quite a view? I keep my secrets tucked away, Too scared of what the truth might slay; For if I risk the "us" I’ve known, I fear I’ll face the dark alone. I’m anchored by the weight of "if," Above a jagged, lonely cliff. I’d rather stay within your light, Then lose you to a winter night. So here I wait, and here I stay, While overthinking leads the way— Afraid to win, afraid to try, In case I have to say goodbye. I take a breath, the words are near, To finally silence every fear. The truth is heavy on my tongue, A song that’s waited to be sung. I turn to find your steady gaze, Ready to end these ghost-filled days, To tell you how my world has shifted, And show you where the veil has lifted. But then you laugh, or catch my eye, And the "perfect moment" passes by. The air feels soft, the light feels right, And I fold my courage out of sight. Why break the peace we’ve built so well, For a story only I can tell? I watch you there, so calm and free, And decide that "now" is enough for me. I let the burning question fade, Content to linger in the shade. For if I speak, the spell might break, And that’s a risk I cannot take. I’d rather keep this quiet glow, Than lose the only world I know; So I’ll just love you, still and deep, With secrets I’m content to keep." Male deep base voice with a sad feel.
Lyrics
[verse]
I love the way you speak my name,
Yet wonder if you feel the same,
Or if I’m reading stars in glass,
Waiting for the glow to pass.
If I should reach to hold your hand,
Would I be building on the sand?
[verse]
The higher that this feeling grows,
The more I fear the heavy blows.
I’m paralyzed by "what might be,"
And shadows only I can see;
For if I lose the heart I’ve found,
I’ll never touch the solid ground.
[break]
[verse]
I trace the patterns of your smile,
And beg my heart to rest a while.
But in the quiet of my head,
I weave a web of doubt instead.
I’m parsing every look you give,
To find the space where "we" might live,
Yet fear that if I speak too loud,
I’ll chase the sun behind a cloud.
[bridge]
I crave the warmth, I want the fire,
But dread the fall if I climb higher.
Is this a bridge to somewhere new,
Or just a ledge with quite a view?
I keep my secrets tucked away,
Too scared of what the truth might slay;
For if I risk the "us" I’ve known,
I fear I’ll face the dark alone.
[break]
[verse]
I’m anchored by the weight of "if,"
Above a jagged, lonely cliff.
I’d rather stay within your light,
Then lose you to a winter night.
So here I wait, and here I stay,
While overthinking leads the way—
Afraid to win, afraid to try,
In case I have to say goodbye.
[outro]
I take a breath, the words are near,
To finally silence every fear.
The truth is heavy on my tongue,
A song that’s waited to be sung.
I turn to find your steady gaze,
Ready to end these ghost-filled days,
To tell you how my world has shifted,
And show you where the veil has lifted.
But then you laugh, or catch my eye,
And the "perfect moment" passes by.
The air feels soft, the light feels right,
And I fold my courage out of sight.
Why break the peace we’ve built so well,
For a story only I can tell?
I watch you there, so calm and free,
And decide that "now" is enough for me.
I let the burning question fade,
Content to linger in the shade.
For if I speak, the spell might break,
And that’s a risk I cannot take.
I’d rather keep this quiet glow,
Than lose the only world I know;
So I’ll just love you, still and deep,
With secrets I’m content to keep.
