Fragile Heartbeats

[Verse 1] Your laughter falls into my coffee cup, Makes little waves as all my thoughts rise up. Your keys still rest on the table by the door, Like your restless heart can’t quite leave anymore. [Pre-Chorus] We’re walking that line between what was and what’s next, Doubt in your eyes, my hands holding what’s left. If everything changes and we come undone, Promise my name still lives in the songs you hum. [Chorus] ’Cause with every heartbeat, it’s you that I hear, Love may be fragile, but yours keeps me here. Stay a little longer, just one more night, Let’s make some room for what we feel inside. [Verse 2] Your sheet music’s sleeping on my old couch, Your underlined words still talk about spring somehow. We swore that “never” wouldn’t touch our mouths, But time shows up when all the doubts slip out. [Pre-Chorus] We fight off the silence like it’s closing in, One look, one gesture, and you turn again. If we lose each other halfway down this road, Come lay your happiness in my open palms to hold. [Chorus] ’Cause with every heartbeat, it’s you that I hear, Love may be fragile, but yours keeps me here. Stay a little longer, just one more night, Let’s make some room for what we feel inside. [Bridge] And if our voices crack in the middle of some song, We’ll rewrite the pages, make the hope twice as strong. We might not be the same as the ones we’ve been, But I want your laughter in the lives of our kids. [Final Chorus] With every heartbeat, it’s you that I wait on, Even when the night falls a little too soon and long. If love slips away, we’ll chase back the time, Stay a little longer, let your hand hold mine. With every heartbeat, it’s you that I hear, Love may be fragile, but yours keeps me here. Stay a little longer, just one more night, Let’s make some room for our fragile light. Our fragile heartbeats, soft and strong, Stay here, my love… Just a little longer… Until the end of every song.
