ARIYA x VARYN – Delayed Light

[Intro] [Instrumental] [Signature Theme] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] I heard the door before you turned the key, knew from the silence what you couldn't say to me. You stood there with the city on your coat, half of you beside me, half already gone. I could ask where you've been, but some answers change nothing. And I know that look— I've worn it too. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we were holding too hard, trying to keep what had already moved. Don't say forever. Just stay until the room goes quiet. [Chorus] If we're only passing through, let me pass through here with you. No promises we have to prove, no perfect words to make it true. [Instrumental] If the night keeps pulling at the edges of the room, stay until the morning finds us— even if it finds us changed. [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Coffee gone cold, your shadow by the window. Headlights moving over your face. You nearly smile like nothing ever happened, then look away before it stays. Your hand moves closer— then stops halfway. Mine does the same. Neither one of us pretends. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe there is nothing left to fix, nothing broken that needs a name. Maybe letting something change doesn't mean we threw it away. [Bridge] I kept thinking leaving meant losing. Maybe some things don't disappear— they just stop asking to be held. [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] If we're only passing through, let me pass through here with you. No promises we have to prove, no perfect words to make it true. [Instrumental] If the night keeps pulling at the edges of the room, stay until the morning finds us— and if the morning finds us changed, maybe changed isn't the end. Maybe somewhere past this room, there's still a little light we haven't seen. [Instrumental Outro]
