Title: Between Your Name and Mine
Verse 1
I woke up reaching for your skin
But only silence answered me again
Your shadow lingers in my sheets
Like love forgot to pack and leave
I pour my heart into the day
But every step just drifts your way
It’s like my soul don’t understand
How you’re not here to hold my hand
Pre-Chorus
I try to be strong, I really do
But every piece of me leans to you
Chorus
It’s three thousand miles of aching slow
Of loving you with nowhere to go
Every breath feels half complete
Like I left my pulse across the sea
If I could cry a road to you
I’d drown the world just passing through
But all I have is this truth I’m in
I’m living life with half my skin
Verse 2
I talk to you through midnight air
Like somehow you can feel me there
I send my voice across the dark
Hoping it lands inside your heart
These walls don’t know the way you laugh
Or how you make the heavy pass
And every second that you’re gone
Feels like a note without a song
Pre-Chorus
They say love finds a way somehow
But I just need you here right now
Chorus
It’s three thousand miles of aching slow
Of loving you with nowhere to go
Every breath feels half complete
Like I left my pulse across the sea
If I could cry a road to you
I’d drown the world just passing through
But all I have is this truth I’m in
I’m living life with half my skin
Bridge
And I would trade every sunrise I see
For one night where you’re next to me
No distance could ever rewrite
The way your name lives in my life
Final Chorus
It’s three thousand miles but still I stay
Right here in love, not walking away
Every mile just proves to me
How deep this love was meant to be
And when the world lets me come through
I won’t waste a breath on getting to you
Till then I carry what we’ve been
Your heart in mine… beneath my skin
