Lyrics
Verse 1
Moonlight slipping through the blinds, I see it in your eyes (oh yeah)
Soft confessions, trembling breath, you never disguise (mmm, mmm)
Held by silence, only sheets between us now (between us, babe)
Truth in your questions, we stumble then we vow
You say it’s been a long week, you barely found rest (barely found rest)
Said you dreamt about me, voice caught in your chest (caught in your chest)
I want to know everything that burdens your soul
There’s comfort in the honesty we can’t control (can’t control)
Pre-Chorus
Talk to me, don’t hold it deep (don’t hold it deep)
Pillowcase promises, what do you need? (yeah)
Let the silence settle slow, and let your heart lead (let your heart lead)
Show me all the pieces nobody sees (nobody sees)
Chorus
Baby in the stillness, we speak our truth (oh yeah)
All the wishes, all the pain, poured into the night (yeah, yeah)
Under covers, you reveal all I hide (oh oh)
Hearts unravel, letting go of that pride
You say you’re scared, I confess it’s the same (mmm, mmm)
Ask me what I’m feeling, tell me your name (oh, oh)
Bare and honest, we don’t need to pretend (no, no)
Every secret in the dark, you’re my friend (yeah)
Pre-Chorus
Talk to me, don’t hold it deep (oh, baby)
Pillowcase promises, what do you need?
Let the silence settle slow, and let your heart lead
Show me all the pieces nobody sees (nobody sees)
Chorus
Baby in the stillness, we speak our truth (truth, oh)
All the wishes, all the pain, poured into the night (night, yeah)
Under covers, you reveal all I hide (hide, mmm)
Hearts unravel, letting go of that pride (oh, oh, yeah)
You say you’re scared, I confess it’s the same (same, baby)
Ask me what I’m feeling, tell me your name (your name)
Bare and honest, we don’t need to pretend (need to pretend)
Every secret in the dark, you’re my friend (oh yeah)
Verse 2
Your hands trace my scars, I show you my wounds
You lay down your armor, I open to you (open up, oh)
Lips on your shoulder, tears fall in between
We’re rewriting tomorrow with the words that we mean
You speak of your daddy, I tell you my past (mmm-hmm)
Promises whispered, hoping moments like this last (last forever, baby)
Teach me your boundaries, I’ll honor your space
Only in this quiet can we find our place (find our place)
Pre-Chorus
Talk to me, don’t hold it deep (talk to me, baby)
Pillowcase promises, what do you need? (what do you need?)
Let the silence settle slow, and let your heart lead (let your heart)
Show me all the pieces nobody sees (nobody sees)
Chorus
Baby in the stillness, we speak our truth (truth, yeah)
All the wishes, all the pain, poured into the night (to the night)
Under covers, you reveal all I hide (mmm, oh)
Hearts unravel, letting go of that pride (let it go)
You say you’re scared, I confess it’s the same
Ask me what I’m feeling, tell me your name (oh baby)
Bare and honest, we don’t need to pretend (don’t need to pretend)
Every secret in the dark, you’re my friend (you’re my friend)
Ad libs: fade out
Talk to me, talk to me (yeah, yeah, oh)
Say your truth
Ad libs: fade out
Talk to me, talk to me (yeah, yeah, oh)
Say your truth
Verse 3
Late night confessions, you laugh and then cry (cryin’)
I hold you closer, wipe the doubts from your eyes (your eyes)
You ask if forever could live in this room
I promise you nothing will change with the moon (promise you)
Lost in the candor, skin warming the night (mmm, yeah)
You show me softness you keep out of sight (don’t hide it)
We’re tangled in truth that we’ve hidden too long
Every word honest, every silence is strong
Pre-Chorus
Talk to me, don’t hold it deep (just talk to me)
Pillowcase promises, what do you need? (oh yeah)
Let the silence settle slow, and let your heart lead (let your heart lead)
Show me all the pieces nobody sees (nobody sees)
Chorus
Baby in the stillness, we speak our truth (speak our truth)
All the wishes, all the pain, poured into the night (mmm, yeah)
Under covers, you reveal all I hide (hide, babe)
Hearts unravel, letting go of that pride (let it go)
You say you’re scared, I confess it’s the same (I’m scared)
Ask me what I’m feeling, tell me your name (your name)
Bare and honest, we don’t need to pretend (mmm, no)
Every secret in the dark, you’re my friend (you’re my friend)
Outro
Softly, softly, words linger in air (in the air, babe)
Lay with me, promise me you’ll always care (always care)
Breathing you in as the morning begins (morning begins)
Love in these talks where the healing begins (where the healing begins)
