The room is breathing with light
Slow motion faces passing by
I feel you standing in the sound
So close
But we don't make a sound

Your eyes say things your lips don't dare
My heart is loud but I stay there
Time is hanging by a thread
One more thought left unsaid
The DJ fades, the kick delays
My pulse forgets which way to race
If I don't move, if you don't stay
This moment slips and drifts away

We're one beat away from falling back in love
We're one beat away from letting go of us
Between the silence and the song we play
We're one heartbeat, one word away
If the night breaks or we choose to stay
We're one beat away

I taste the past in every sound
Every laugh we never found
Your shadow leans into mine
Like it's running out of time

I've been strong, I've been afraid
Both have cost me just the same
Love don't beg, it only waits
At the edge of almost-sane

The lights go low, the crowd dissolves
It's just your breath and my resolve
Say my name or walk away
Decide it now, don't let it fade
We're one beat away from falling back in love
We're one beat away from giving up on us
Between the silence and the song we play
We're one heartbeat, one word away
If the night breaks or we choose to stay
We're one beat away

Hold on
Can you feel that?
The space where nothing moves
But everything could change
My heart don't know the difference
Between fear and faith
Say it
I'll let it end

If I step forward I might fall
If I don't move I lose it all
Love's not loud, it doesn't shout
It waits to see what we're about
So here I am, no guard, no shield
This is the truth I couldn't feel
I don't need forever today
Just don't let this be yesterday
One beat away from breaking all belief
One beat away from you and me
If your heart's still calling mine
Meet me in this moment, not another time
When the song fades, what will you say?

We're one beat away
Between heartbeats
Between songs
Between goodbye
And holding on

One beat away
One beat away
