It didn’t hit like lightning… Didn’t come crashing through the sky… No… It started… With something small… ⸻ It was a look I didn’t notice A quiet hand that didn’t pull No rush, no weight, no expectations Just something honest… something full I’d been running through the fire Chasing love that couldn’t stay Didn’t know what peace felt like Till you stood there… didn’t walk away ⸻ No noise… no war… no need to fight… Just you… just me… just something right… ⸻ We built this slow… stone by stone No breaking ground we couldn’t hold No empty words… no highs to chase Just steady hearts… and open space And I feel it grow… deeper than before Not a storm… but something more ⸻ Every day a little clearer Every step a little sure No more losing who I was Trying to be something I’m not anymore You don’t ask me to be perfect You don’t need me to be strong You just meet me where I stand And somehow… that’s where I belong ⸻ No fear… no doubt… no hidden line… Just truth… just time… just you and I… ⸻ We built this slow… hand in hand No shifting ground… no sinking sand No chasing ghosts… no burning out Just quiet strength… without the doubt And I feel it rise… stronger than before Not a storm… but something more ⸻ I thought love had to hurt… Thought it had to break you to be real… But this… This is different… This is standing in the light… This is breathing without fear… This is knowing when I fall… You’ll still be right here… ⸻ We built this slow… now it stands Stronger than I ever planned No more shadows… no disguise Just open hearts… and open skies And I feel it now… louder than before Not a storm… But something more… ⸻ Ohhhhh… we built it… we built it slow… Ohhhhh… and now it’s something we both know… Turns out… Love don’t have to fall… To rise…
