[Verse 1 – Male] I saw you standing there in that old café, Reading a book, brushing the world away. Your smile caught me like a summer breeze, And I knew right then, you’d matter to me. [Verse 1 – Female] You walked in shy, with your hands in your coat, Ordered black coffee and cleared your throat. But your eyes told stories your lips never did, And something in me said, "Remember this." [Pre-Chorus – Together, alternating lines] (Male) I didn’t know what love could be... (Female) Until your voice became home to me. (Both) And now we’re writing pages we never planned, Two hearts holding the same pen in hand. [Chorus – Together, harmonized] We were strangers with stories untold, But love found a way through the cold. And now I don’t need to dream anymore, You're the reason I believe in more. Hand in hand, soul to soul, We’re not just in love — we’re whole. You and me, forever’s door... Closer, closer than before. [Verse 2 – Female] We built a life out of Sunday rain, Laughing through tears, dancing through pain. You held me close when I fell apart, Stitched every crack inside my heart. [Verse 2 – Male] You lit the dark I tried to hide, Sang my silence into the light. And every scar, you kissed it kind, As if my flaws were by design. [Pre-Chorus – Together, soft harmony] (Female) I never knew love could feel so still... (Male) ‘Til your name replaced my will. (Both) And now I wake to your breath on my skin, Loving you feels like where life begins. [Chorus – Together, with emotional lift] We were strangers with stories untold, But love found a way through the cold. And now I don’t need to dream anymore, You're the reason I believe in more. Step by step, kiss by kiss, It’s more than magic — it’s this. You and me, forever’s door... Closer, closer than before. [Bridge – Interwoven duet, back and forth] (Male) Even when we're gray and slow... (Female) I’ll still dance with you real close. (Male) If this world forgets our names... (Female) I’ll still know your voice the same. (Both) And if we ever lose our way, We'll find it in the things we say... [Final Chorus – Soft to powerful build] We were strangers, now we’re each other’s home, No longer searching, no more alone. You’re my always, my evermore, The only heart I’m singing for. Every day, I love you more... Closer, closer than before. [Outro – Whispered harmony] You and me... Closer than before.
