Dusk Between Us

[Verse 1]
Your voice, my voice, all tangled up
In yesterday’s echo and tomorrow’s promise
It’s messy, sure, but it’s the road we’re walking
And somehow you keep wandering back to it
My heart and yours both feel like temples
You leave a quiet kind of peace inside me
Yet I see the way your thoughts drift toward her
Your truth, my truth, and her truth circle
Round the past and the future and right now
And the dusk between it all becomes my refuge

[Chorus 1]
And you’re wanting
And you’re aching for her
And it catches you off guard
But you know it didn’t start with intention

[Verse 2]
Your heart and mine both sit a little lonely
And when sunrise comes, you’re beside me again
Your hand reaches for me out of habit
But my spirit is still somewhere in the dusk
Your heart and mine feel almost sacred
But we both know that’s a lie we tell at night
’Cause when the morning cracks open, you’re here
And the daylight runs from the truth we’re hiding

[Chorus 2]
And you know I care for you—deeply
But there’s nothing left to fix or change
’Cause you’re tied to her
And a part of you still clings to me

[Bridge]
If I could shift into who she is…
But I’m not her, and she’s not me
And your orbit is spinning
Far from where my feet are planted

[Chorus 3]
And you still chase it—
That quiet place inside yourself
And it feels wicked
But somehow the wicked feels required

[Outro]
And you’re still craving her
Still reaching for the piece she never gave
But she won’t give you love, no matter how you burn
