Heart signal
Heart signal
You don’t move but the room shifts
Every time you turn my way
One small pause in the conversation
And I hear more than you say
No confession no green light
Just your shoulder close to mine
Could be nothing could be something
Could be timing out of time
I keep counting every change in your breathing
Every half-second your eyes don’t leave me
Say it plain
Or let the silence decide
Heart signal heart signal
Are you sending it too
Two beats in the quiet
Every time I get close to you
Heart signal heart signal
Tell me if I’m reading it right
No words just the distance
Getting smaller every night
Pulse pause
Then you lean in
Pulse pause
There it is again
Heart signal
I don’t chase static
I don’t name signs
I don’t turn one look
Into a whole headline
But your hand finds mine
When the room goes dark
Then you pull away
Right before it starts
Maybe we’re careful
Maybe we’re scared
Maybe the answer
Is already there
I keep hearing every change in your breathing
Every half-second you move closer to me
Say it plain
Or let the silence decide
Heart signal heart signal
Are you sending it too
Two beats in the quiet
Every time I get close to you
Heart signal heart signal
Tell me if I’m reading it right
No words just the distance
Getting smaller every night
Pulse pause
Then you lean in
Pulse pause
There it is again
Heart signal
If it’s only in my head
Let the moment pass
If it’s real
Don’t let it fade this fast
