No Photos

We let the room stay smaller
Lower voices slow the time
We didn't have to say it
I was already on your side
Shadows on your carpet
Coffee going cold beside

You laugh
Turn your face
Duck out of my frame
Some things feel cheaper
Soon as they get saved

No photos
I wanna hold you
No photos
I'm not collecting you for later
If it's gone when it's over
Then it's ours in this moment
No photos
No photos
Just you
Getting closer

Your hair in my sweater
Lipstick on my sleeve
You say
Don't you dare
Make a memory out of me

So I blink and I breathe
Try to print you on my mind
Every freckle
Every secret
Every almost-crossed line

No photos
I wanna hold you
No photos
I'm not collecting you for later
If it's gone when it's over
Then it's ours in this moment
No photos
No photos
Just you
Getting closer

Maybe in a year
Will you think of this light?
The crack in the curtain
Your hand in mine?

No photos
I wanna hold you
No photos
I'm not collecting you for later
If it's gone when it's over
Then it's ours in this moment
No photos
No photos
Just you
Getting closer
