[Instrumental Intro – Piano, Cello and Soft Strings] [Verse 1 – Female Singer 1, Solo] The battle lingered on my skin, The smoke hung heavy in the evening air. When your hands reached out to touch me, You were gentler than the morning's prayer. I tried to stand, I tried to be strong, But my strength was nearly gone. And you caught me in the fading firelight, As though I'd always been someone you knew. [Instrumental Interlude – Cello and Gentle Harp] [Verse 2 – Female Singer 2, Solo] Your blood stained my hands, Your gaze was fading into grey. I saw the scars of all your battles, And suddenly I knew I'd stay. I knelt beside you in the firelight, Brushed the hair away from your face. "By all the stars, please stay with me," I whispered, never leaving your side. [Instrumental Break – Warm Strings and French Horns] [Pre-Chorus – Female Duet] [Female Singer 1 – Solo] Your forehead resting close to mine, [Female Singer 2 – Solo] The evening fell into silence. [Both Female Singers – Harmonized] No swords between the two of us, Just a heart that wished to stay. [Instrumental Transition – Soft Orchestral Build] [Chorus – Female Duet] [Female Singer 1 – Solo] When my hands began to tremble, You never let me slip away. [Female Singer 2 – Solo] When you placed your trust in me, I knew I'd never walk away. [Both Female Singers – Harmonized] Between the fire and the stars, Where the final battle cries fade away, Two souls who'd lost their way Found a peace that was here to stay. [Instrumental Interlude – Full Strings, Harp and Gentle Percussion] [Verse 3 – Female Singer 2, Solo] I washed the dust from your hands, Bound the wounds upon your skin. You opened your weary eyes, And trusted me without a word. Even the strongest walls can crumble, When no one stands behind them anymore. And while the winds were raging outside, You were the reason I stayed. [Instrumental Break – Piano and Cello] [Verse 4 – Female Singer 1, Solo] I only knew the endless wandering, The call of swords throughout the night. But beside you in the warmth of the fire, For the first time, I smiled. My hand found yours once more, As though it had always belonged there. And among the wounds of yesterday, Something new was growing, quiet and strong. [Instrumental Transition – Strings Gradually Rising] [Chorus – Female Duet] [Female Singer 1 – Solo] When the world calls out to you, Will you still be by my side? [Female Singer 2 – Solo] When you call to me through the mist, I'll never leave you behind. [Both Female Singers – Harmonized] Two worlds that once were lost, Two hearts that finally met. Love did not begin with promises, It began with trust instead. [Instrumental Interlude – Emotional Piano and Cello] [Bridge – Female Duet, Soft and Emotional] [Female Singer 1 – Solo] Not every battle is fought with blades, Not every victory is born in glory. [Female Singer 2 – Solo] Sometimes all it takes is a hand to hold, When you've lost your way back to yourself. [Both Female Singers – Soft Harmonies] And when the towers fall again, When new wars rise before our eyes, I want to stand there by your side, And walk with you through every darkness. [Instrumental Build – Full Cinematic Orchestra] [Final Chorus – Female Duet, Powerful Harmonies] [Female Singer 1 – Solo] In your arms, I find my peace, Where once there lived only fear and doubt. [Female Singer 2 – Solo] By your side, I find my courage, Even when the storms return. [Both Female Singers – Full Harmonized Duet] Two warriors, two stories, Two paths that led to one another. What saved us was not strength, It was the trust we found in each other. [Instrumental Outro – Strings, Harp and Piano] [Outro – Female Duet, Soft] [Female Singer 2 – Solo] Stay with me... [Female Singer 1 – Solo] I am here... [Both Female Singers – Gentle Harmonized Ending] Two worlds... One journey together. [Final Instrumental Fade Out]
