        
[Verse 1]
Midnight falls
Room breathing a silver glow
I can’t move
Four fingers trace the window
Time stops
One exhale, then another thought
I remember—your name
Held under my tongue

Sometimes I close my eyes
Sometimes I hide from light
I search for something lost
Always waiting
Rain runs down the glass
Stilled in place, I let hours pass
You’re everywhere but near
Leaving me here

[Chorus]
When time stops, the world just hangs
Shadows freezing, caught in place
Everything waits for your return
When time stops, I call your name
When time stops, the air stands still
Wish I could hold, could hold you still

[Post-Chorus]
Slip away
Slip away

[Verse 2]
Empty streets
Wet pavement, a secret scene
Silent lines
Streetlights painting what might’ve been
Time stops
Softest shiver through paper skin
I remember—the rush
Now only hush

All we had is folded small
All we said, now barely recall
I trace the cracks in my palm
Longing lingers
I try not to speak
Try not to break the streak
But night’s gentle hand
Makes me understand

[Chorus]
When time stops, the world just hangs
Shadows freezing, caught in place
Everything waits for your return
When time stops, I call your name
When time stops, the air stands still
Wish I could hold, could hold you still

[Post-Chorus]
Slip away
Slip away

[Bridge]
Maybe I’ll find you
Maybe I’ll feel you
Maybe I’m just lost here
Maybe I’ll find you
Maybe I’ll feel you
Maybe I’m just lost here
(lost here)

[Chorus]
When time stops, the world just hangs
Shadows freezing, caught in place
Everything waits for your return
When time stops, I call your name
When time stops, the air stands still
Wish I could hold, could hold you still

[Post-Chorus]
Slip away
Slip away
Slip away
