Lyrics
Verse 1
Your hand in mine, it lingers slow,
A fleeting touch I can’t let go.
Every heartbeat lets me know,
This is love we can’t outgrow.
Verse 2
Your breath is warm, it draws me near,
A gentle truth, it feels so clear.
Even when the night is done,
This will live when all else runs.
Chorus
Like a careless whisper I can’t let go,
It moves so soft, it cuts so low.
Every moment, I still replay,
Your love’s the song I can’t escape.
Verse 3
Your eyes reveal what words can’t say,
A quiet fire won’t fade away.
Every secret that we hide,
Burns forever deep inside.
Chorus
Like a careless whisper I can’t let go,
It moves so soft, it cuts so low.
Every moment, I still replay,
Your love’s the song I can’t escape.
Bridge
Don’t fade tonight, just hold me tight,
Let the world drift out of sight.
Every note, your name inside,
Living in this lullaby.
Final Chorus
Like a careless whisper I can’t let go,
It burns inside, it still will grow.
Even if I lose your face,
Your love’s the song I can’t replace.
