Lyrics

You touch my hand
And the air pulls tight between us
Every breath
Trying to tip me off this edge
Your eyes say "now"
But my heart says "slow
Be careful"
We're right here
One word away from what we can't forget
I feel the rush
You feel it too (I know)
But if we leap
Where do we land
Where do we go
Is this a moment
Or a life we're setting in motion
Tell me
Do we really want to carry all that weight
Not every spark needs to burn all night
Not every touch has to cross that line
Desire's loud
But my soul is quiet
(quiet, quiet)
Holding back
I'm holding you in mind
Guarding the part that we'll need in time
If we stay steady
This love can find us
(I'm choosing you, over the fire)
You lean in close
And my logic starts to tremble
Every "should"
Slips away beneath your skin
But I see you
Past the shadows and the shivers
Past this couch
Past these dim and drifting sins
I hear your breath
Right at my ear (so close)
Your body asking
Questions your mouth won't ever pose
But if we answer
With our heat instead of our honesty
Will we wake up strangers to the truth we never spoke
Not every spark needs to burn all night
Not every touch has to cross that line
Desire's loud
But my soul is quiet
(quiet, quiet)
Holding back
I'm holding you in mind
Guarding the part that we'll need in time
If we stay steady
This love can find us
(I'm choosing you, over the fire)
[Bridge]
[Male] I want you
God I want you
But I want to face you in the morning light
[Female] I feel you pulling at my boundaries
But I feel my future in my spine
[Both]
So I breathe in
Let the frenzy fade
If we walk away tonight
We can still walk in someday
Not every spark needs to burn all night
Not every touch has to cross that line
Desire's loud
But our hearts are quiet
(quiet, quiet)
Holding back
We're holding us in mind
Saving a story we can read in time
Choosing control over gorgeous chaos
So we don't build a future out of regret
Soft goodnight
At your door
Just fingers brushing
Turn and go
With a promise in your eyes
We're not weaker
For the fire we didn't tumble into
We're just strong enough
To let this love arrive in its own time
