Joyful Captive

(Verse 1 - Over a soft slow single guitar strum)

I never knew a softness that hurt as much

As the touch of your skin slightly out of reach

I never knew that the volume of an eye

Could hold more stars than midnight sky

Or that a scent, light and sweet,

Could fill me, float me, make me see

Forever at a glance, in a breath,

In a held hand.

(Chorus - Jubilant but soft)

Lost in the echoes of a whispered name,

A heart burning, consumed by your flame.

Every touch, a promise, every glance, a plea,

Captive in your orbit, eternally free.

(Verse 2 - introduce the beat)

Like stardust caught in morning dew,

Your essence lingers, ever new.

A fragile bloom, a whispered sigh,

You paint my world with hues of sky.

A melody of touch, a silent plea,

You hold the key to setting me free.

(Verse 3 - full accompaniment)

I've wandered through deserts, cold and vast,

Seeking solace, a love to last.

And then you came, a gentle light,

Dispelling shadows, making everything right.

Your smile, a sunrise, warm and bright,

Chasing away the darkest night.

(Chorus - Crescendo)

Lost in the echoes of a whispered name,

A heart burning, consumed by your flame.

Every touch, a promise, every glance, a plea,

Captive in your orbit, eternally free.

(Bridge - vocals only)

I'm a compass needle, drawn to only you.

A silent symphony, your pulse my groove.

In nighttime dark or sunshiny day,

For your love is all I will pray.

(Verse 4 - full accompaniment)

In realms of longing, where shadows creep,

Your love's a lighthouse, safe and deep.

With every heartbeat, a silent prayer,

To hold you close, to always care.

A tapestry woven with golden thread,

Our souls entwined, forever ahead.
