[(piano only, slow and intimate)]
[Verse 1]
Tonight the room is barely breathing
Curtains sway like they know your name
The clock forgets to keep on moving
Every second bends when you came
I speak your name in silent places
Where the heart doesn’t need a sound
Even shadows change their faces
When you’re the one I’ve found
[Pre-Chorus]
I was made of restless moments
Unfinished dreams, half-alive
Then your eyes, they gently stole me
Taught my lungs how to survive
[Chorus]
Where my breath belongs is near you
In the space between your sighs
I don’t need the stars above me
When your heartbeat fills the sky
Hold me still, don’t say a word
Let the world fall out of sight
I was always almost breathing
Till you breathed me into life
[Verse 2]
Your touch is not a sudden fire
It’s a slow and honest flame
It burns away the fear inside me
Leaves only what remains
I’ve loved in ways that felt like falling
But never felt this sure
Your silence says what love is calling
Soft, fragile, pure
[Pre Chorus]
Every doubt I ever carried
Lays down quietly tonight
In your arms I stop resisting
I don’t need to fight
[Chorus]
Where my breath belongs is near you
In the pause between the pain
Every broken part forgives me
When you whisper my name
Hold me close, the night is listening
Every truth feels safe to say
I was drowning in my own heart
Till you took my breath away
[Bridge]
If this love should ever tremble
If the morning feels unsure
I’d still choose this gentle moment
Over anything before
Let the world be loud and fearless
Let the future test my faith
I would lose my voice forever
Just to hear you say my name
[(piano softens, almost silence)]
[Final Chorus]
Where my breath belongs is near you
In the quiet we both know
I don’t need to chase forever
I’ve arrived, I’m home
Stay…
Even if the sky gives way
I’ve been holding air all my life
Waiting for this place
[(piano outro, fading)]
