The Quiet Between Heartbeats - Niko Jarell
Play light on the floor
Curtains barely move
Every second slows when I think of you
I trace your name in the space we left
In the silence where nothing's said
I don't need the words I feel it inside
Every pause is where you hide
In the quiet between heartbeats
I feel you breathing close to me
Every moment I can't escape is
Calling out your name
In the quiet between heartbeats
Where love still waits
The shuffling is in the sound
Memories I can't shut down
I try to run but I stay right here
Listening to everything we never were
Every space you never filled
Still holds you still
In the quiet between heartbeats
I feel you breathing close to me
Every moment I can't escape is
Calling out your name
In the quiet between heartbeats
Where love still waits
If I let this feeling fade
Would it finally drift away
Or would the silence bring you back
Every time I react
In the quiet between heartbeats
I feel you closer than before
Every breath I try to take
Still leads me to your door
In the quiet between heartbeats
I'm in yours once more
