Hold the Dawn
In the quiet of your room, where the shadows play their game,
You trace the lines on my palm like they’re maps to somewhere safe.
Your laughter spills like sunlight, but your eyes, they lock the door,
A fortress built from whispers of the storms that came before.
I feel the pull, the gravity, the way your breath catches mine,
But you step back into the glow, leaving echoes in the line.
(Pre-Chorus )
Oh, I see the fire in you, flickering, holding tight,
A spark that could ignite the night, but you shield it from the fight.
It’s not the want that’s missing, no, it’s carved into your skin,
A promise to the girl you were, before the breaking in.
(Chorus )
For heaven’s sake, darling, why do you hold the dawn so close?
Let the morning break, let the rivers flow, let the wild ones loose.
You’re a wildfire waiting, but you chain the flames with grace,
Beautiful boundaries, love, in this endless, aching space.
I swear I’d wait forever if it meant you’d feel the rush,
But your heart’s a locked-up garden, blooming just enough.
Oh, for heaven’s sake…
(Verse 2 )
We dance around the edges, where the silk meets sharpened steel,
Your fingers brush my fever, but you pull them like a seal.
I’ve chased the ghosts in hallways, learned the taste of half-goodbyes,
But in your hesitation, girl, I see the truth in your eyes.
It’s not fear of falling, no, it’s fear of flying free,
A crown of thorns you’re wearing, for the queen you choose to be.
(Pre-Chorus )
Oh, I taste the storm you’re brewing, thunder wrapped in velvet lies,
A symphony of silences that sings beneath the skies.
It’s not the yes that’s fleeting, it’s the no that sets you right,
A lantern in the wreckage, guiding through the endless night.
(Chorus)
For heaven’s sake, darling, why do you hold the dawn so close?
Let the morning break, let the rivers flow, let the wild ones loose.
You’re a wildfire waiting, but you chain the flames with grace,
Beautiful boundaries, love, in this endless, aching space.
I swear I’d wait forever if it meant you’d feel the rush,
But your heart’s a locked-up garden, blooming just enough.
Oh, for heaven’s sake…
(Bridge)
And if I could rewrite the stars, I’d scatter them like seeds,
Plant a world where your surrender doesn’t bleed.
But you’re the architect of rivers that don’t overflow,
A masterpiece of maybe, in the undertow.
What if we just lingered here, on the brink of what could be?
Your walls aren’t cages, love—they’re the poetry of thee. 

(Final Chorus )
For heaven’s sake, darling, why do you hold the dawn so close?
Let the morning break, let the rivers flow, let the wild ones loose.
You’re a wildfire waiting, but you chain the flames with grace,
Beautiful boundaries, love, in this endless, aching space.
I swear I’d wait forever if it meant you’d feel the rush,
But your heart’s a locked-up garden, blooming just enough.
Oh, for heaven’s sake…
