What Is This Feeling?

(Verse 1)

I’ve known you since the days we were small,

When shadows stretched but we stood tall.

A laugh, a hand, a steady ground,

You’re always where my heart is bound.

(Pre-Chorus)

But lately, when I hear your voice,

It pulls me like I have no choice.

A warmth I can’t define or see,

Why does your smile do this to me?

(Chorus)

What is this feeling, soft and strange?

A quiet storm I can’t arrange.

It isn’t friendship, not the same,

But I’m too scared to call its name.

What is this feeling, sweet yet wild?

It leaves me breathless, yet beguiled.

I push it down, I let it hide,

But still, it lingers deep inside.

(Verse 2)

The way you fumble, yet you care,

You shield the world like I’m not there.

I watch you stumble, watch you stand,

And wish I could just hold your hand.

(Pre-Chorus)

My heart betrays the lines I’ve drawn,

Your shadow wakes me with the dawn.

I tell myself it’s just a phase,

But why do I still feel this blaze?

(Chorus)

What is this feeling, soft and strange?

A quiet storm I can’t arrange.

It isn’t friendship, not the same,

But I’m too scared to call its name.

What is this feeling, sweet yet wild?

It leaves me breathless, yet beguiled.

I push it down, I let it hide,

But still, it lingers deep inside.

(Bridge)

I see the stars reflect in your eyes,

I hear a song when you pass by.

It can’t be real, it’s just my mind,

But why does it feel so aligned?

(Outro)

So here I stand, the truth denied,

The waves keep crashing in my tide.

I’ll call it nothing, keep it free,

This feeling only lives in me.
