[Verse 1]
You walk in quiet
Still turn my head
You read my silence
Before I said
My hands run wild
My pulse runs fast
You slow the storm down
And make it last
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the cool in my heat
The pause in my rush
When I get too loud
You hold me soft
[Chorus]
Shadow Prince, stay close
You know my shape
Shadow Prince, my home
You take the ache
You're the shade to my sun
The calm in my fire
Shadow Prince, stay near
You lift me higher
[Verse 2]
You fold my worries
Like shirts in a drawer
You bring me water
When I ask for more
You map the stars out
In the notes you leave
A little paper moon
In my sleeve
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the cool in my heat
The pause in my rush
When I get too loud
You hold me soft
[Chorus]
Shadow Prince, stay close
You know my shape
Shadow Prince, my home
You take the ache
You're the shade to my sun
The calm in my fire
Shadow Prince, stay near
You lift me higher
[Bridge]
If I burn too bright
You don't step away
You make the gold last
You make me stay
And when I go thin
You give me your hand
Magic in your timing
I finally understand
[Chorus]
Shadow Prince, stay close
You know my shape
Shadow Prince, my home
You take the ache
You're the shade to my sun
The calm in my fire
Shadow Prince, stay near
You lift me higher
Shadow Prince, my love
My quiet light
Shadow Prince, my heart
You make me right
