Roots and Stars

[Intro] Soft light on our faces, breath slow and close. [Verse 1] Quiet nights, we talk face to face Hands entwined through hard times Small rituals, coffee steam and morning light Your laugh lingering in the hallway [Chorus] Roots bind us deep, even as branches bend Stars shine side by side, never touch the skin of night I love you here, where forever stays [Verse 2] Then comes the truth, as soft as rain on glass We must part, though our hearts keep the map of us Letting go is a quiet ache that breathes in us Still, your voice travels with me through every day [Chorus] Roots bind us deep, even as branches bend Stars shine side by side, never touch the skin of night I love you here, where forever stays [Outro] Distance runs between us, but love remains our common ground
