Pavement and Hush (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Bare feet on the worn wooden floor

Your sweater's soft against my shoulder

Pine needles on your sock and dust from doors that open and shut again

The room holds a thousand breaths I've never taken before

Pre-Chorus

Hold still for a minute more, don't turn back yet

Chorus

And then the hush starts coming in through the cracks

Pavement outside is turning into skin where your pulse meets mine

Verse

Framed prints of cities no one's seen yet

The radiator hums like it's keeping time

I count the dust on your collarbone and I let go of everything that was waiting for me out there

Every window here holds a story we don't share

Pre-Chorus

Hold still for a minute more, don't turn back yet

Chorus

And then the hush starts coming in through the cracks

Pavement outside is turning into skin where your pulse meets mine

Bridge

Maybe cities are just places we hold until they become someone's name again

The quiet here isn't leaving any sooner than I do
