We play it cool
And keep our distance
Slips like water through our hands
We forget how it feels
There’s a ghost inside us
There are hands on your eyes
Spaces in between us
There are places we can’t hide
The heat and the light
Of this broken devotion
Don’t forget what it’s like
Let me let you go
You stand so quiet next to me
And I see it’s getting dark
It’s something in the air we breathe
And how it keeps us far apart
Put the record on
The wave is cresting beneath us
Our time and consequence
Binding us to fires we burn
In our hearts
The heat and the light
Of this broken devotion
Don’t forget what it’s like
Let me let you go
