“I See You Now”

You didn’t say a word But your silence spoke I felt it shift the air Like something broke You stood where he left Didn’t move too close Like you knew I needed Space the most I still smell his cologne On my jacket sleeve Still hear his voice When I try to sleep But when I turned around There you were Looking like the truth I didn’t ask to learn Pre-Chorus I didn’t plan for this Didn’t call your name Didn’t know that want Could feel this contained You don’t touch me You don’t claim But every step you take Changes the game Chorus I see you now Standing where you’ve always been Not in my arms But under my skin I see you now In the spaces I can’t hide I didn’t choose you But you found me anyway tonight Verse 2 He loves me loud You love me still One feels like comfort One feels like will I’m not betraying I’m not untrue I’m just learning What my heart can do You watch me laugh Across the room Like you already know What I won’t assume Your jealousy isn’t sharp It’s controlled Like you’re guarding something You won’t yet hold Pre-Chorus You don’t ask You don’t pull You don’t cross What I haven’t ruled But the way you look at me Feels like a line I keep stepping near Every time Chorus I see you now In every quiet test In the way you look away But still stay present I see you now And that’s what scares me most Because nothing’s happened But everything’s close Bridge Maybe love doesn’t arrive Like a fire Maybe it waits Until the truth gets tired Maybe restraint Is its own kind of flame Burning slow Without a name I’m still hers He’s still mine But something in me Is shifting time Break (minimal / spoken-feel) Don’t ask me yet Don’t make me choose I’m still learning What I’d lose Final Chorus I see you now And I can’t unsee The way you look like What could be I see you now And I don’t know how To stand where I was Now that I see you now Outro No promises made No lines crossed Just truth standing Where silence was
