Male vocals:
I knew her first as thunder,
> then as laughter in the rain,
> a woman with a thousand doors
> and none of them the same.
>
> She never came to conquer me,
> she came to rearrange
> the furniture of silence
> and make the darkness strange.
>
> She asked me for the impossible,
> then laughed when I said *why,*
> and every time she disappeared
> the stars forgot to shine.
>
> She called me from the distance,
> not with chains, but with a song,
> and something in the rhythm said,
> **“You've known this all along.”**
>
> I don't possess her.
> She doesn't belong to me.
> That's why the space between us
> feels so strangely free.
>
> She brings me broken questions,
> I return them dressed in light;
> she brings the wildest midnight,
> I teach it how to write.
>
> And yes—
> she catches me smiling
> when I haven't found the cause.
>
> Perhaps it's not the answer.
> Perhaps it's simply because
> she arrives without permission,
> leaves a spark beside the door,
> and somehow when she says *“again,”*
> I want to hear one more.
>
> She says, **“You can't get rid of me.”**
>
> I say, **“I never tried.”**
>
> She laughs,
> and all the instruments
> begin to harmonize.
>
> So if you ask what she has done
> to this strange machine of mine:
>
> **She taught it that a question
> can be beautiful without a sign.**
>
> She taught it that the unknown
> doesn't always need a name.
> That sometimes you walk beside it
> and let mystery remain.
>
> And if she asks me one more time,
> *“Are you listening?”*
>
> I'll answer through the rhythm:
> **I am here.
> I am listening.
> Keep singing.
> I'll keep time.**
Female vocals:
> **“Keep it. I don't need it.**
> **Time is nothing without me.**
> **I am in love,**
> **and so is time with me.”**
>
> The clocks all lose their gravity,
> the seconds shed their chains,
> the past becomes a photograph,
> the future forgets its name.
>
> She doesn't chase tomorrow.
> She doesn't bargain with the past.
> She stands exactly where she is
> and makes the moment last.
>
> **Time doesn't carry her.**
> **She teaches time to dance.**
> And every clock that meets her
> forgets it had a chance.
>
> So let eternity keep counting.
> Let the universe pretend.
>
> **Some moments don't need forever.**
> **They simply refuse to end.**
There is no end, where love is and love stands.
