Eternal Embrace

Three seconds Maybe Four

[Verse 1]
There’s a light above the kitchen sink
pale as early morning skin—
you sit with both hands around a mug
watching steam rise soft and thin

Outside rain paints silver dots
on cars asleep along the street
a quiet city hanging on
to everything we used to keep

[Pre-Chorus]
No plans no maps no future tense
just your tired smile and tired eyes
I can feel the world move slow
between the seconds passing by

[Chorus]
Three seconds maybe four—
your eyes meet mine then drift again
I keep that small uncertain smile
as if it’s worth remembering—
If someone asked what love looks like
I’d say it isn’t grand or loud—
just two hearts at a kitchen table
while the rain comes down

[Verse 2]
You trace a circle on the wood
the same place where a stain remains—
we talk about a film we love
but every word pulls quiet pain

A siren spills a lullaby
somewhere far across the town
and you breathe out through parted lips
as though you might confess then don’t.

[Pre-Chorus]
No storms no raised voices here
just tired truth beneath your voice
Every silence feels like choosing
even when we have no choice

[Chorus]
Three seconds maybe four—
your eyes meet mine then drifts again
I keep that small uncertain smile
as if it’s worth remembering
If someone asked what love looks like
I’d say it isn’t grand or loud—
just two hearts at a kitchen table
while the rain comes down

[Bridge]
When morning comes this house will breathe—
soft perfume of toast and tangerines
maybe nothing changes babe
but you’ll still sit across from me

[Final Chorus]
Three seconds maybe four—
you lift your eyes then look away—
for now I’ll keep this tiny scene
a quiet corner of our days
If someone asked what love looks like
I’d point to moments small and true
an empty mug a fading night
and me across a table watching you
