Linger on my lip



come to me, move a step over
No need to touch, just get closer
No need to whisper, silence to hear
Forget the kiss, stand still, be near

Lead to paradise, linger on my lip
Sync your breath, a moment, a blip
It’s magical when closer to your soul
I don’t want to miss, or lose control

Are you listening? Do you feel it all?
The scream is me, I want to fall,
Is it you, is it love?
