Lyric

The moment it crossed my mind, I froze without a word

I tried to stand afar, but my eyes still went toward

Too scared to get too close, I turned and walked away

Yet every time I looked back, you were there to stay

The air grows awkward as I get closer to you

Even when I try to laugh, everything feels askew

My clumsy heart carries these nights, long and deep

Lonely as I feel, you’re the promise I keep

One more step, but will I ever truly fit in?

Standing on this edge, where the silence begins

But I can’t just stop, my heart pulls me to your side

Today again, I reach out, nowhere left to hide

Within the casual words, I’m getting used to you

One little joke lingers, painted in a shade of blue

I hid my pounding heart, fearing I’d seem too young

But the more I try to grasp, the more it stays unsung

Feeling a small warmth in this tangled, complex space

Scared it’d drift away, I moved at a different pace

The days that swayed and drifted, they all led to you

If you’re at the end of the road, I’ll walk it through

No matter how tired I am, your thought brings me new light

Between the words I struggle with, you make the air feel right

The future’s blurred and hazy, but with you it starts to glow

Even if I fall, I have a reason to get up, I know

The front is hazy

The past is shining clear

But I look up at you

And the light draws near…

The hesitation, long and stretched, touches the final ring

All the expressions and words, a sudden blossoming

I want to show you the trembling in my fingertips too

No more hiding away, I’m standing here for you

My heart has finally connected, trembling with the sound

The waves I held back, now crashing all around

I’m walking slowly toward you, no longer afar

At the end of the haze, you’re my guiding star

The time that stood frozen starts to flow in your light

Words I’ve held in my heart, finally taking flight

This road leading to you has finally found its way

Quietly, but clearly… "I love you."
