[Verse 1] You said the night would clear our heads, But silence spoke instead. Two cups of coffee, one untouched, Guess that’s how we said too much. [Chorus] In the quiet between us, The words don’t mean a thing. All the sound has faded, But the truth still wants to sing. I can’t hate you, I can’t stay— We just lost the gentle way. In the quiet between us. [Verse 2] The window hums a low refrain, Old records spin our names again. We used to move like light and glass, Now the dance just doesn’t last. [Chorus] In the quiet between us, The echoes fill the room. Every smile’s a ghost in bloom. I can’t hate you, I can’t stay— We just lost the gentle way. In the quiet between us. [Bridge – whispered piano solo] Maybe love was never gone, Just sleeping through the dawn. I’ll let it rest where it belongs— In the quiet, in the song. [Final Chorus – soft close] In the quiet between us, No more need to prove. Peace is just another move. I can’t hate you, I can’t stay— But I’ll love you anyway, In the quiet between us.
