(Verse 1) I never let anyone this close before You’re walking through a heart I usually keep locked doors You laugh like you’ve known me for years But I’m still learning to silence my fears You hold my hand like it’s made of gold And I pretend I’m not scared of the weight we hold You're kind, you're real, you're everything But love like this feels like a fragile thing (Pre-Chorus) You see the light in all my cracks But what if someday you don’t want that? (Chorus) And it’s just a kiss, but it’s shaking my world Like maybe I could be someone’s girl It’s soft and small, but I feel the shift A heart once guarded, starting to lift I don’t know where we’ll end or begin But maybe love’s just letting it in (Instrumental Break) [Acoustic guitar picking with subtle strings and piano—emotional and breathy, like the quiet between thoughts.] (Verse 2) I watch the way you fall asleep Like even in dreams, you're trusting me I wish I could match your certainty But I’ve only known love as make-believe You say, “We’ll figure it out in time,” But I’m tracing doubts like warning signs What if I’m the one who runs? What if I lose you when I’ve just begun? (Pre-Chorus) You say you’ll stay, but people leave And I’ve been left by everything I believe (Chorus) ‘Cause it’s just a kiss, but it’s cutting so deep Like opening doors I swore I’d keep It’s light and slow, but I feel the weight Of maybe fate or maybe mistake I don’t know how to let someone in But maybe love’s just trying again (Verse 3) We’re dancing in a midnight song No map to show us where we belong But you say “No rush, let’s take it slow,” And maybe that’s all I need to know So I breathe, and I don’t pull away And for once, I let the moment stay You kiss my doubt right off my skin And I believe what we’re in (Bridge) And I’ve spent years behind my walls Built from doubt and near-love falls But you don’t knock—you wait, you stay And that’s why I’m not running away If love is scary, maybe it’s real And maybe that’s the way it’s meant to feel (Pre-Chorus) So I breathe in the fear and exhale your name And somehow nothing feels the same (Final Chorus – stripped back, then swelling) It’s just a kiss, but it’s something new Like maybe I could be loved too It’s small, but it’s the first real spark That lights a fire in the dark I don’t know how or why or when But maybe love’s just letting it in (Outro – Whispered) Maybe love’s… Just a kiss.
