We didn’t say much But it felt like enough We learned how to sit in the silence Like it wasn’t something to fix Every pause had a meaning Every breath was a risk I was waiting for answers You were counting the lights Somehow nothing between us Felt painfully right There were words on my tongue That I never released I was scared they’d break something That was holding us still You were tracing the table Like it knew what to say I was learning that quiet Could ask me to stay So we stayed Without asking why Let the moment decide Who we were that night If love needs a sound We didn’t make one We learned to stay quiet together Time moved slowly around us Like it didn’t belong Every second felt fragile Like it knew it was strong I’ve been loud in my living I’ve been sure, I’ve been wrong But with you in the quiet I was finally calm So we stayed Let the world pass us by No direction in mind No need for a sign If love needs a sound We didn’t make one We learned to stay quiet together Maybe nothing was promised Maybe nothing was clear But I felt less alone Just knowing you were here So we stayed When the noise faded out Let the truth come around Without shouting it loud If love needs a sound We didn’t make one We learned to stay quiet together So we stayed Till the silence felt warm Like a place we were born Not a gap to ignore If love needs a sound We didn’t make one We learned to stay quiet together
