Reaching Through the Cold

[Verse 1]

Your coffee cools beside the bed

You smile, but leave so much unsaid

The morning paints the walls in gold

Yet something here feels strangely cold

Your hand is resting next to mine

Our shadows fall in perfect lines

I know your face, your every scar

So why do you feel so far?

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe it's a word we missed

A moment lost inside a kiss

No broken glass, no closing door

Just less of what we had before

[Chorus]

Something's different, I can feel it

Like a song we used to know

Every note is still familiar

But the melody feels low

You're still here, I'm still beside you

Still the place I call my home

So why does holding you this close

Feel like reaching through the cold?

[Verse 2]

We talk about the little things

The rain, the roads, the plans we make

You laugh at something on your phone

I laugh, then watch the silence grow

I search your eyes for yesterday

For something words can't wash away

And though you never say goodbye

I miss you when you're by my side

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe it's a word we missed

A truth too delicate to risk

No shattered dreams, no final score

Just less of what we had before

[Chorus]

Something's different, I can feel it

Like a song we used to know

Every note is still familiar

But the melody feels low

You're still here, I'm still beside you

Still the place I call my home

So why does holding you this close

Feel like reaching through the cold?

[Bridge]

If I ask, will you deny it?

If I wait, will we repair?

Is there something left to rescue

Or are we afraid to care?

I don't need a perfect answer

I don't need a flawless start

I just need to know if silence

Is protecting us or pulling us apart

[Final Chorus]

Something's different, I can feel it

Still your heartbeat next to mine

We are standing in the same room

But we're somewhere else inside

You're still here, I'm still beside you

Still not ready to let go

Tell me, is this just a season

Or the first crack in our home?

[Outro]

No goodbye, no last embrace

Just a question in your place

I still love you as before

So what are we becoming now?
