[Intro]
Whispers rise, a secret flame in the dark
Softly I admit what my heart starts
[Verse 1]
Manuxo, my friend, my brother, I breathe your name
When I say I don’t love you, it’s a craving I can’t tame
Longing grips my heart, it drums like a distant choir
I feel your absence, I need you more than I’ve admitted higher
[Chorus]
If love is growing, let it be true
Sweet thunder we can’t ignore, me and you
I listen to the ache that won’t let go
Our friendship wakes a tide I’ve always known
[Verse 2]
I dare to tell you what I fear to say aloud
That longing isn’t wrong, it’s loud and unbound
Awakened feelings bloom, delicate and bright
I see a future where your smile lights my night
[Chorus]
If love is growing, let it be true
Sweet thunder we can’t ignore, me and you
I listen to the ache that won’t let go
Our friendship wakes a tide I’ve always known
[Bridge]
Between the lines, I’m choosing to be brave
To love you honestly, not hidden or afraid
Let the heart decide, let the trust be shown
In this honest truth, I’m finding home
[Chorus]
If love is growing, let it be true
Sweet thunder we can’t ignore, me and you
I listen to the ache that won’t let go
Our friendship wakes a tide I’ve always known
[Outro]
Manuxo, my friend, my brother, hear this plea
Love is a river, it’s you and me
