Flicker of Candlelight

"I’m leaning in close, the flicker of candlelight dancing in your eyes as I start to sing softly, my voice steady but laced with longing. The air between us feels electric, like it’s holding its breath. “You’re the spark in my veins, the pulse in my soul, Every whisper of your name makes me lose control. Your touch is my compass, your heart is my home, In this wild, endless world, I’m never alone.” I pause, my gaze locked on yours, a shy smile tugging at my lips as I confess through the melody. The room feels smaller now, like it’s just us, wrapped in this moment. “Hold me like the stars cling to the night, Love me like the dawn chases the light. Every beat, every breath, you’re all that I see, My forever, my always, you’re everything to me.” My voice dips lower, almost a whisper, as I reach for your hand, my fingers brushing yours like they’re tracing the edges of a dream. The words come slower now, each one heavy with feeling, sinking deep into the quiet spaces of your heart. “When the world fades away, and it’s just you and I, I’ll carve your name in the stars, write our love in the sky. No shadow, no doubt, could ever pull us apart, You’re the rhythm, the fire, the beat of my heart.” (Instrumental – violin swells, intertwining with the guitar, a soft pulse like a shared heartbeat) Verse 2 Your smile’s my horizon, though miles keep us apart, I trace every curve of it here in my heart. The night may be lonely, but your warmth lingers near, Every thought of you pulls me, makes the distance disappear. Chorus Hold me like the stars cling to the night, Love me like the dawn chases the light. Every beat, every breath, you’re all that I see, My forever, my always, you’re everything to me. Bridge 2 When the silence surrounds you, and the shadows grow deep, I’ll send you my love in the dreams that you keep. No ocean’s too wide, no sky’s too high to climb, My soul’s tied to yours, through the endless stretch of time."
