I can hear the rhythm when I pull you close
Every single second is the one I chose
Underneath the shadows where the firelight glows
I’m just counting your heartbeats where the river flows
The midnight air is heavy but your touch is light
We’re tracing down the memories in the fading night
Your fingers graze my shoulder like a summer breeze
I want to keep you wrapped inside this kind of ease
The world outside is rushing but we’ve slowed it down
We found a quiet corner in a sleepy town
I feel the steady ticking of the love we make
And every breath you’re breathing is a breath I take
I’m counting your heartbeats against my chest
Finding the rhythm where my soul can rest
You’re the sweetest melody I’ve ever known
Right here in my arms is where you belong
One, two, drumming on my skin
Three, four, let the night begin
The embers in the fireplace are burning low
But there’s a deeper fire in the way you glow
I pull you just a little closer to my side
There’s nowhere left to wander, nowhere left to hide
The shadows on the ceiling slowly intertwine
You pour your deepest secrets like a glass of wine
I feel the steady ticking of the love we make
And every breath you’re breathing is a breath I take
I’m counting your heartbeats against my chest
Finding the rhythm where my soul can rest
You’re the sweetest melody I’ve ever known
Right here in my arms is where you belong
One, two, drumming on my skin
Three, four, let the night begin
I never knew a silence that could speak so loud
A gentle isolation far away from the crowd
I’ll hold you in the shadows where the colors bleed
A promise to protect you from the heart of Sayed
The rhythm of our pulses is a perfect blend
A slow and burning feeling that will never end
Just close your eyes.
I’ve got you now.
