When You Touch Me

Verse 1
It’s late and the moon draws lines on your face,
Quiet like a secret we don’t need to say.
Blankets breathing slow, clock hands barely move,
Every little heartbeat leaning into you.
Pre-Chorus
You say nothing, but I hear it in your touch,
A whispered question that’s almost too much.
Chorus
When you run your finger on my back,
And ask me if I want to cuddle,
I know exactly what you want—
You are more than just a snuggle.
You’re the hush inside the thunder,
You’re the calm inside my trouble,
When you run your finger on my back,
You are more than just a snuggle.
Verse 2
Your laugh in the dark makes the shadows fade,
Coffee on the nightstand, promises we’ve made.
We talk about the future like it’s here tonight,
Your hands draw constellations on my spine.
Pre-Chorus
You say nothing, but I hear it in your touch,
A quiet vow that says we’re enough.
Chorus
When you run your finger on my back,
And ask me if I want to cuddle,
I know exactly what you want—
You are more than just a snuggle.
You’re the hush inside the thunder,
You’re the calm inside my trouble,
When you run your finger on my back,
You are more than just a snuggle.
Bridge
It’s not only heat, it’s a soft, steady light,
A shelter built from your breath in the night.
Hold me close, let the heartbeat speak,
In the space between words, we’re complete.
Breakdown
Trace my spine, write your name,
Every line, feels the same—
Home.
Final Chorus
When you run your finger on my back,
And ask me if I want to cuddle,
I know exactly what you want—
You are more than just a snuggle.
You’re the hush inside the thunder,
You’re the calm inside my trouble,
When you run your finger on my back,
You are more than just a snuggle.
Outro
Lights low, world still, we don’t need to say much,
I hear forever in the weight of your touch.
I am a global nomad/permanent traveler, or coddiwombler, if you will, and I move from place to place about every three months. I am currently in Peru and heading to Chile in a few days and from there, who knows?. I enjoy writing articles, stories, songs and poems about life, spirituality and my travels. You can find my songs linked below. Feel free to like and subscribe on any of the platforms. And if you are inspired to, tips are always appreciated, but not necessary. I just like sharing.
