steal

Summary:

This is an original song inspired by the quote „I never understood the importance of touch, his touch, until I couldn't have it“

Notes:

I got the idea for this after watching the film and when I was halfway done crying my eyes out.
That movie was simply incredible, it really got to me, especially the beginning and ending quote from Stella, where she talks about the importance of touch. It inspired me to write this song.
I hope you like it <3

Work Text:

Touch
Touch is something we crave
Skin to skin
The simplest form of gravity

Stayed out of reach of your fingertips
as long as I could, not as long as I should

I
I just wanted to know what it'd feel like
It was just a lonely night
I
I just wanted to know what it'd be like
It wasn't supposed to be
Love underneath

Words
Words are something we need
Whispered into my skin
The deepest form of ecstasy

Tried to breathe around you, tried to see around you
You took the choice out of my hands

I
I just wanted to know what you'd feel like
It was just borrowed time
I
I just wanted to know what you'd be like
You weren't supposed to be
Addictive underneath

Under my skin
Keep my breath in your lungs
You steal it from me

The look in your eyes
is something I crave
Deeper than words, simpler than touch
The thread woven into us

Under my skin
Keep my breath in your lungs
You steal it from me
