[VERSE 1] I met you in the quiet of the empty park, Rain falling softly like a whispered song. Your tired eyes were drifting like a soul in the dark, And something in your voice said this is where I belong. [PRE-CHORUS]] And in the stillness of that moment, I felt a pull inside, Like the night itself was carrying us somewhere we couldn’t hide. [CHORUS 1] But the night kept pulling us closer like a tide, Every secret that you told me echoed things long gone, And though I knew the wiser move was staying on my side, I followed just to see where your shadow carried on. [VERSE 2] We walked beneath the streetlights glowing over rain, Your words in the night echoed things you’d once explained, Your steps were slow and easy as we wandered down the lane, I listened to your stories as the night began to wane. [PRE-CHORUS] And though your voice was steady, I heard a tremble underneath, Like every road you tried to run from still followed in your breath. [CHORUS 2] But the night kept pulling us closer like a tide, Every secret that you told me echoed things long gone, And though I knew the wiser move was staying on my side, I followed just to see where your shadow carried on. [BRIDGE] Then you told me why you ran, from battles never won, A heart you broke, a promise fading when the night was done. But there beneath the flicker of a streetlight near the dawn, I saw not danger… only someone choosing to hold on. [FINAL CHORUS] So I said, “You don’t have to run from what you feel,” You looked at me like sunrise breaking through a long, quiet night. And though the road ahead may test what’s meant to heal, I walked with you as morning rose to greet a better light. [OUTRO]
