Verse 1:
In a crowded room, you're a ghost,
Every laugh, every glance, I want you the most,
But my words stumble like leaves in the fall,
You’re the melody, but I'm scared to call.
Chorus:
Chasing shadows, you slip away,
Every heartbeat, another delay,
You're the spark that lights up the night,
But I'm just a whisper, lost in the fight.
Verse 2:
With every moment, I paint your smile,
But when you’re near, I feel so fragile,
Courage hides beneath my skin,
Wanting you to let the magic begin.
Chorus:
Chasing shadows, you slip away,
Every heartbeat, another delay,
You're the spark that lights up the night,
But I'm just a whisper, lost in the fight.
Bridge:
Oh, the silence is louder than the words I wish I'd say,
In this dance of hesitation, will you lead or drift away?
Caught in a spin, I try to find my place,
But when you look my way, I just lose my trace.
Chorus:
Chasing shadows, you slip away,
Every heartbeat, another delay,
You're the spark that lights up the night,
But I'm just a whisper, lost in the fight.
Outro:
So here I stand, heart on my sleeve,
Wondering if you feel what I believe,
In the glow of your presence, I'm come undone,
Hoping one day, I’ll be the one.
