Verse 1

Layin’ by you in the quiet dark,

Hearin’ your breath roll soft and slow.

Feelin’ your heartbeat hittin’ sharp,

While I’m fightin’ off that lonesome glow.

You’re close enough to almost touch,

And Lord, that want burns deep inside—

But one wrong move, one step too much,

And love could fade like a winter sky.

Verse 2

We used to burn like July flames,

Back when your love was all I knew.

You were my world, you said my name—

But when it fell, I lost you too.

I’d die to feel that light again,

That hope we held so bold and true.

I hung on tight through thick and thin,

Swore my whole soul belonged to you.

Verse 3

But you left me standin’ in the cold,

Like some old house with no fire.

Still I stood strong, I didn’t fold,

Even as my heart grew tired.

Love turned bitter, sharp with pain,

Like fences broke and worn with time.

I wished and prayed, but all in vain—

Dreams don’t always fall in line.

Bridge

I tried to reach you, called your name,

But every try just broke me more.

My chest would tighten all the same,

My soul curled up behind that door.

I can’t keep walkin’ down this road,

Can’t tear the guard ‘round what’s left inside.

My heart’s locked tight, too overload,

Too scared to lose that final pride.

Chorus

So now it’s your turn—come and try,

Let your truth cut through the gray.

If you want me, don’t let me hide—

Show me you’re here, choose to stay.

If I’m gonna let down my guard tonight,

Baby… it’s your turn to try.
