I knew the weight Behind your eyes Before you ever Named it So I left something soft Beside you Hoping music Could explain it No grand promise No demand Just a piece of me Made quiet But when tenderness Met silence Something in me Stopped trying I didn't leave I just stepped back Didn't slam A single door You could still see me In the room I just didn't Cross the floor And you know me Well enough to see The difference In my hands I still reach When you are falling I just stopped Reaching alone We're still Within reach Even when We don't touch Still saying Everything Without saying Too much You went quiet I went guarded Now we're standing In between Where nothing Really ended But nothing feels The way it used to be Still within reach Still close enough To know When you're asking me To stay And when I need To give you space Take all the room You need from me I won't mistake it For goodbye We're still Within reach Even from The other side You know that look You've seen it before When I pull The feeling inward I don't punish I don't chase I just pull The doorway in And lately You've been coming closer Like you felt The moment shift Never trying To force me open Just reminding me You're still here You don't have to say You noticed I can feel it In the change Every time You move toward me Without asking me To explain You know me Well enough to see When something underneath Has changed I'm still here I'm still beside you I'm just harder now To reach We're still Within reach Even when We don't touch Still saying Everything Without saying Too much You went quiet I went guarded Now we're standing In between Where nothing Really ended But nothing feels The way it used to be Still within reach Still close enough To know When you're asking me To stay And when I need To give you space Take all the room You need from me I won't mistake it For goodbye We're still Within reach Even from The other side I thought silence Was your answer Maybe time Was what you needed So I learned To hold my distance Without letting go Completely Now I feel you Trying softly And you feel me Holding still Neither one of us Is leaving We're just learning How to meet here Without forcing What we feel We're still Within reach Come a little Closer now Not enough To break the quiet Just enough To bring it down You know where My guard came from I know why You needed space So don't promise me Forever Just don't let this Fade away Still within reach And maybe that's Enough tonight No chasing And no surrender No proving Who was right Just your head Against my shoulder And my hand Around your sleeve We're still Within reach So stay within Reach of me You don't have to Break my guard tonight You don't have to Explain the silence Just stay here Close enough For tenderness To find us Santi Flores
