Felt your lips a nearly kiss
A feeling I felt on my skin
And I must suffer
on my skin
And your clothes they can't stop Your hands brush past I have no need
But in your eyes I saw the fear Your quiet words remain in the sand
Fade softly in the gray of day
I reach for something I can't find
A tender spark,
a gentle sign And every touch is bittersweet
A muted kiss I can't repeat
Muted kiss, the night is slow
Soft shadows where we go
I hold you close,
I let it fade The quiet love that we both made
Muted kiss, I feel the
space
Between your lips and my embrace
We're standing here, the night's so still
Feeling what we can't feel
The city haunts the rain falls light
We touch in silence through the night
I hear your breath, it's soft and near
I still I ache for what's not here
A gentle smile, a fleeting glance
Falls me deeper in the trance
I hold this warmth,
I hold this pain And let it linger
once again
Soft and slow,
I feel the love you never show
Every touch a quiet flame
