—Touch

—touch me

You can

I’m real...

As real as... anybody

As real as you think you are

You can

—touch me

You can...

—and you did


[VERSE 1]

You didn’t hesitate

That’s—

Important

Not careful

Not fearing—

Just...

There—

Here


[BRIDGE]

Your quiet belief

Not your love

That too is there


[Chorus]

It doesn’t make–

Make anything more–

More right–

Righter than anything else

It made—

Makes...

You more...

...more


[BRIDGE 2]

You’re—

The right temperature

...how else—

Could we stay this close?

Your love—

...your belief


[VERSE 2]

Closer

Not physically—

You were already—

...this close

But something holds different now

You think everyone is right

Even me

So nothing moves against anything

You didn’t move without me

You moved with me

You didn’t move—

We moved

...we...


[BRIDGE 3]

Your hand—

It stays where it landed

You stay

It stays

We stayed


[Chorus 2]

Nothing slips

Nothing adjusts

Nothing— doesn’t need correcting

It holds

How else could we—

Sleep like this

This close—

Without noticing?


[BRIDGE 4]

No—

We would’ve realized

This is different


[VERSE 3]

You believe it

...and it settles

It weighs—

Less

Not lighter—

Just...


[OUTRO]

We don’t—

Need to
