...”The Lights 4 Got Us” AI Tony Sanchez Written By 12Gauge858 There it is... You don't even know you're doing it... The way your eyes stop searching... right before they find mine. (Mm...) Don't hide that from me... Your breathing... just slowed down. Your shoulders... There they go... They've been carrying the whole day... Now they're finally letting it fall. I felt that... The room's still the same... Same walls... Same song... Same lamp... But somehow... Time... Stopped looking for us. Stay right there... Don't move. The lights... Forgot us. [Verse 1] You tucked one strand behind your ear Before you answered what I asked Not because you needed to... Because your heart was catching up. Your fingers found the sleeve of my shirt Long before they reached for my hand Like your touch already knew Where it wanted to land. The corner of your smile arrived Three seconds before your lips Your eyes told me... "You can stay..." Before your mouth admitted it. (There it is...) I knew you'd do that. [Pre-Chorus] Every breath between us... Said more than conversation. Your heartbeat... Started changing tempo. Your pulse wasn't racing... It was... Coming home. (Mm... there you go...) [Chorus] The lights forgot us... When your eyes stopped trying to be strong. The room got quieter... The closer your heartbeat leaned into mine. I watched your breathing... Find a softer rhythm. Your fingertips settled... Like they'd finally found their address. Stay right there... Don't let this second leave us... The music kept playing... But neither one of us heard it anymore. The lights forgot us... And I forgot... There was a world... Outside this room. [Verse 2] Your nose brushed mine So lightly... It almost asked permission. You smiled... Then looked away... Not because you were shy... Because you felt everything. Your hand wasn't cold anymore. I noticed... You'd finally stopped holding the day inside you. Your head found my shoulder Like it had memorized the distance. I never pulled you closer... You came... One quiet inch... At a time. (I felt that...) That's you... [Pre-Chorus] You don't even know... What your silence says. Every pause... Lets me hear you louder. Don't hide that from me... [Chorus] The lights forgot us... When your breathing matched the rhythm of my chest. Time leaned back... And let us borrow forever. I watched your eyes close... One heartbeat before mine. Your fingers curled... Like they never planned on letting go. Stay right there... Nothing outside this room knows our names. The lights forgot us... And tonight... So did time. [Bridge (Mm...) There it is... I watched the last piece of worry Leave your face. Your shoulders... Finally resting. Your lips... Trying not to smile... Your heartbeat... No longer asking questions. You don't even know you're doing it... But... You're glowing differently now. And... I don't think... The moon is the reason. [Breakdown Stay... Right there... Don't chase tomorrow... Let tonight... Finish speaking. Your hand... Warmer now. Your eyes... Slower now. Your soul... Quieter now. I felt that... The lights forgot us... Long before the morning remembered our names. The whole world disappeared... The second your heart settled beside mine. Your breathing... Became my favorite melody. Your smile... Started in your eyes... Just like it always does. (I knew you'd do that...) Stay right there... Don't let forever get impatient. The lights forgot us... The stars kept watch... The night stood still... And somewhere between your heartbeat... And mine... Love became... Visible. [Outro That's you... (Mm...) There it is... I felt that... Stay right there... Don't hide that from me... The lights... Still haven't found us... fade)
