Silent Meridian

Count to eleven

in the dark

One more spark,

one more start

You drew a line across the room I crossed it slow,

I knew it too Your eyes said stay,

your hands said run A little danger,

little fun

I felt the clock inside my chest

Tick up fast when you got close

We never named

what this could be

Still I wore it

like a rose Ten to eleven,

nearly there Hold my breath and cut the air

If you want me,

let it show

I am ready, let it go

Eleven, you make my heart lean in Eleven,

where do we begin Right on the edge,

right in the fire One step away from what I desire Eleven,

say it like you mean Eleven,

everything between Late night turning into heaven Love arrives at sweet eleven

I know the shape

of what you hide It moves like rain behind your smile

You play it cool,

I play it brave We

trade our quiet

for a while

No perfect words, no grand design

Just skin and air and timing right The room gets small,

the world falls back

Your name turns gold in midnight light Ten to eleven,

feel it rise Truth is bright in both our eyes If you

want

me, do not

wait Put

your hand here, change my fate Eleven,

you make my heart lean in Eleven,

where do we begin Right on the edge,

right in the fire One step away from what I desire Eleven,

say it like you mean Eleven,

everything between Late night turning into heaven Love

arrives at sweet eleven When the room goes still

I can hear the truth All the ways

I ran Led me here

to you Count it slow with me Let the whole world fade

Eleven, you make my heart lean in Eleven,

where do we begin Right on the edge,

right in the

fire One step away from what I desire Eleven,

say it like you mean Eleven,

everything between Late night turning into heaven Love arrives at sweet eleven

Oh oh, sweet

eleven Sweet eleven Stay a little longer Sweet eleven

Hold me

in the hour Sweet eleven We do not need another sign
