Lyric

[Verse 1]

The room was still

Except for light

Moving softly

Across the floor

Something shifted

Through the air

Too slight to name

Too near to keep

A breath

Half formed

Then less

Than that

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe the silence touched

What I could not

[Chorus]

What the air held

Stayed for a while

Soft as a shadow

Crossing the white

You moved within it

Thin as the day

Close for a second

Then away

What the air held

Would not remain

Holding the outline

Without a name

[Verse 2]

The window opened

Just enough

The morning bending

Through the glass

A distant motion

Crossed the pale

Then disappeared

Before it passed

I let it loosen

Like a thread

Already gone

Before it fell

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe the moment turns

Before it fades

[Chorus]

What the air held

Stayed for a while

Soft as a shadow

Crossing the white

You moved within it

Thin as the day

Close for a second

Then away

What the air held

Would not remain

Holding the outline

Without a name

[Bridge]

Stay

For what is thinning

Stay

Until it clears

Stay

Where the hour opens

And disappears

[Final Chorus]

What the air held

Still in the light

Quietly breaking

Nowhere

You move like memory

Out of frame

Leaving the color

Without a name

What the air held

Fading from sight

Staying forever

One little light

[Outro]

Somewhere

Inside the air

Still arriving
