Verse 1
I learned your laugh before I learned your favorite song,
Counted little moments, never knew I’d count this long.
Coffee cups and tired eyes, another break at work,
Finding whole galaxies inside the way you smirk.
I keep pretending this is easy, this is fine,
Just another conversation, killing time.
But every word I never said
Has been pacing in my head.
Pre-Chorus
So if my voice shakes, let it.
If my hands don’t know where to go,
At least you’ll know the truth
Instead of another “maybe so.”
Chorus
So here it is—
I think I’ve been falling for you,
Slow enough to scare myself,
Fast enough to know it’s true.
I don’t need forever promised,
I don’t need the stars to move.
I just couldn’t keep pretending
You were someone I could lose.
If your heart’s somewhere else,
I’ll survive, I’ll find my way.
But I’d regret a thousand silences
More than hearing “not today.”
So here I am…
That’s how I feel about you.
Verse 2
Maybe you’ve already noticed, maybe I’m a mystery,
Maybe every sideways smile was only chemistry.
Still I’d rather risk the weather than live inside the rain,
Wondering what might have happened if I’d spoken through the pain.
Because hope isn’t foolish
When it’s honest and it’s kind.
Love doesn’t become smaller
Just because it isn’t timed.
Chorus 2
If tomorrow looks the same,
At least my heart won’t hide.
No more rehearsing conversations,
No more swallowing my pride.
Maybe you’ll step closer,
Maybe you’ll walk away.
But I’ll finally know I loved you
Enough to say your name.
And if this is where the story
Turns a page we never knew,
Then let these words be proof enough…
Every road kept leading back to you.
Bridge
If you take my hand,
I’ll smile like morning finally found me.
If you let it go,
Thank you for the moments that became my gravity.
You never owed me anything.
This isn’t meant to change your mind.
It’s only me, standing here,
Leaving all my hiding places behind.
Final Chorus
So here it is—
Every glance and every grin,
Every reason I kept choosing
To let you slowly wander in.
Maybe this becomes a story,
Maybe this becomes goodbye.
Either way, you’ll never have to wonder
What was living in my eyes.
I came with nothing but the truth,
No perfect ending to pursue.
I just wanted you to know…
I fell in love with you.
