Verse 1
I learned to hold the night like a secret in my chest
Built a house of quiet words where nothing could get rest
But your shadow finds the hallway, and it knows the way inside
Pulls the curtains from my stubborn pride, leaves the truth untried
Hook
I want you close — like the pulse beneath my ribs
I want you close — when the world forgets to give
Hold me like the shore holds the tide from breaking loose
I am a map without a road, I want you close
Verse 2
Your whisper is a weather vane, it points me to a calm
The way you laugh can stop the thunder, steady every storm
Little skin on skin like prayers I didn’t know to keep
Your hands read all the chapters that my silence couldn’t speak
Hook
I want you close — like the pulse beneath my ribs
I want you close — when the world forgets to give
Hold me like the shore holds the tide from breaking loose
I am a map without a road, I want you close
Verse 3
There are nights I taste the future like a dare beneath my tongue
I’ve fought the urge to call your name when the light is almost done
Scars keep their own secrets, but they soften when you trace
Every crooked line is easier in the warmth of your embrace
Hook
I want you close — like the pulse beneath my ribs
I want you close — when the world forgets to give
Hold me like the shore holds the tide from breaking loose
I am a map without a road, I want you close
Verse 4
If I am made of fragments, you’re the seam that keeps them whole
If faith is just a rumor, you’re the quiet that I hold
Stay with me through jaywalked mornings, stay through broken plans
Be the steady in my fever, be the slow beneath my hands
Hook (big)
I want you close — pull the gravity back to me
I want you close — be the truth I learned to need
Hold me like the shore holds the tide from breaking loose
I am a map without a road, I want you close
Outro (soft, lingering)
Close enough to catch my breathing, close enough to know
When the silence starts to crack, be the answer that I borrow
Keep me near until the dawn finds colors we can choose
I’ll fold the dark into your light — I want you close.
Porque music
See you when I see you
