In the way (extended - duet)

V5.5

[VERSE 1] I watch the way you move through rooms like nothing ever assumes you’ll need attention to be seen or space to mean you open doors without thinking twice not like it’s a device just something in you already set you don’t forget and I start noticing I adjust without meaning to trust [PRE-CHORUS] it’s not that I’m comparing you to anything I knew it’s more that I’m learning slow what I didn’t know [VERSE 2] you’re setting something in the air without even being aware like the way you listen and stay changes the day and I don’t name it as it grows but somehow I know the version of “enough” I had just changed with that [VERSE 3] you talk to strangers like they’re known no shift in tone like respect is just how you begin not something you spin my friends warm up to you too fast like it’s already passed any need for you to prove a thing you just bring and I realise I’m not translating you you’re just what you do [PRE-CHORUS] and it’s not that I expected something directed towards changing how I see what people can be it’s just I’m noticing now somehow [VERSE 4] I don’t really plan how I arrive or read the room alive I just step into what is there already aware no intention to create a shape or calibrate the way I’m meant to be received or believed and I don’t notice I’m being seen until you lean [VERSE 5] I don’t set out to shape the space or find my place I don’t hold back or push ahead it’s just unsaid and I notice the way you track what I give back like I’m not performing a role just whole and I don’t try to define the room you already do [PRE-CHORUS] I don’t think about setting pace or taking space it’s more I just exist like this no excess but I see how you’re tuning in where I begin [CHORUS] you’re setting something in the air without even being aware like the way you listen and stay changes the day and I don’t name it as it grows but somehow I know the version of “enough” I had just changed with that and it’s not something we decide it’s how we align like the room remembers the way we both stay [VERSE 6] you bring flowers without a scene nothing in between no performance of intent just what you meant you wait before you assume the mood like it includes checking the air in my eyes before you decide and I notice how that changes me quietly [VERSE 7] I don’t try to guide what you say or shape your way you make people feel included not concluded like they’re part of something already steady and I don’t wait for your arrival you’re already vital [PRE-CHORUS ] it’s not that we’re trying to be anything we see it’s more the way it unfolds without being told [FINAL CHORUS ] you’re setting something in the air without even being aware like the way you listen and stay changes the day and I don’t catch it all at once it builds in response to how naturally we move through the room and I don’t hold it in place I just watch it replace what I thought I already knew with you
