(Verse 1)
In the quiet hush where words dissolve, we drift so near,
Gentle strings of fingerpicked guitar, the space sincere.
Piano hums in low, sustained resonance, soft and deep,
Electronic breaths like whispers, secrets that we keep.
Light handclaps tap the pulse, brushed snare a tender sigh,
Heartbeat kick beneath it all, a slow rhythm passing by.
(Chorus)
Silence and proximity, a language born in the still,
Holding close without a sound, where spirits softly thrill.
Breath to breath, a sacred dance, no words dare to compete,
Just silence and proximity, where our souls gently meet.
(Verse 2)
The ache of presence lingers, tension wrapped in velvet air,
Distance folds around us, yet closeness is laid bare.
Piano chords like shadows, lingering in the night,
Guitar strings weave the pulse, electronic pads breathe light.
Handclaps move like whispers; brushed snare strokes the skin,
Heartbeat kicks a steady beat beneath the warmth within.
(Chorus)
Silence and proximity, a language born in the still,
Holding close without a sound, where spirits softly thrill.
Breath to breath, a sacred dance, no words dare to compete,
Just silence and proximity, where our souls gently meet.
(Bridge – whispered layers, close-mic breathy harmonies)
Breathe in, breathe out — voices weave like mist,
A tapestry of echoes, in this quiet tryst.
Soft harmonies entwine, like overlapping breaths,
Mystical and fragile, where silence never rests.
(Outro Chorus – softly, fading)
Silence and proximity, the warmth beyond the sound,
In this space between us, where the sacred is found.
No need for words to capture what our quiet hearts decree,
Only silence and proximity, you here next to me.
