Lyrics
Verse 1
You knocked like you almost turned around
I opened before the sound went out
Same sweater, cold air coming in
Two glasses waiting by the sink
Fog on the water, coast out of sight
We didn’t touch but we didn’t fight
Everything hanging in the room
Like we both knew
(Whisper) Like we both knew…both knew
Pre-Chorus
Your hand on my shoulder
Stayed when it should go
We didn’t stop it
We let it go slow
Chorus
No words between us
Nothing to hide
We didn’t fall in love
We crossed the line
No wrong direction
No need to show
After the silence
We already know
(Hook Chant) After the silence…We already know
Verse 2
Your breath at my collar said my name
No spark, no thunder — still not the same
We moved like memory finding pace
Two lives pausing in the same place
Outside the city was rolling on
Inside the moment kept holding on
No one said “I must go”
But we stayed
Bridge
Morning came slowly through the glass
The world returned but nothing cracked
You said my name letting go
Soft and low
No sorry
No stay
Nothing to save
Anyway
Final Chorus
No words between us
Nothing to hide
We didn’t fall in love
We changed inside
No wrong direction
No need to show
After the silence
We always know
Outro
I watched you leaving down the hall
The room stayed warm after all
