Stand Close

Intro

(minimal, controlled)

If you’re here

Stand close

⸻

Verse 1

You don’t look like you’re unsure

You don’t fake it when you smile

Every move you make says more

Than words could for a while

You don’t rush, you don’t stall

Like you know how this plays out

Funny how you say nothing

But you don’t back out

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I don’t chase reactions

I don’t raise my voice

If you’re stepping in this space

You already made a choice

⸻

Chorus

Stand close

If you’re gonna stay

Don’t lean halfway

Don’t fade away

I don’t need a promise

I don’t need a pose

If you feel the moment

Stand close

⸻

Drop

(wide melodic lead, chant-style vocal)

Stand— stand—

Close

⸻

Verse 2

You move like you like the pressure

Like it sharpens every thought

Every second gets heavier

But you don’t stop

You don’t flinch when the lights hit

You don’t break eye contact

You don’t get this close to something

Just to pull back

⸻

Pre-Chorus 2

I don’t read into maybes

I don’t slow things down

If you’re still right here

You’re already found

⸻

Chorus

Stand close

If you’re gonna stay

Don’t lean halfway

Don’t fade away

I don’t need a promise

I don’t need a pose

If you feel the moment

Stand close

⸻

Bridge

(drop strips, vocal forward)

I don’t need you louder

I can hear it now

Some feelings answer

Without a sound

⸻

Final Drop / Outro

(big but controlled)

Stand close

Don’t let go
