[Verse] Youâre a river in my hand, slow and deep, Silk on skin, heartbeat underneath. I donât know no rhyme for the shape of your dreams, But I know how to weave them in between. [Pre-Chorus] Nightlight hums, shadows stretch, Youâre my moon before the sunâs too much. One strand, two, then threeâitâs all I need, While your eyes close like the worldâs asleep. [Chorus] Braid my girl, braid my soul, Every thread a story I canât let go. Youâre my rhythm, youâre my rhyme, Every knot I tie, Iâm not afraid of time. Braid my girl, braid my love, While the world outside still feels too above. In this quiet, weâre a wholeâ My girl, my heart, my morning, my soul. [Verse] You donât say much, but your silence sings, Like a drumbeat that the night still brings. Iâve got my hands in your crown of flame, Picking up the pieces just the same. [Pre-Chorus] Pillow soft, your cheeks lean, My hand moves slow, like a vow unseen. Each loop a promise, each twist a prayer, For your days ahead, for your love to wear. [Chorus] Braid my girl, braid my soul, Every thread a story I canât let go. Youâre my rhythm, youâre my rhyme, Every knot I tie, Iâm not afraid of time. Braid my girl, braid my love, While the world outside still feels too above. In this quiet, weâre a wholeâ My girl, my heart, my morning, my soul. [Bridge] Iâm not your hero, no cape or crown, Just a man whoâs doing his best on this ground. But when you sleep, Iâm the one who knows That your hair is my truth and my home. [Chorus] Braid my girl, braid my soul, Every thread a story I canât let go. Youâre my rhythm, youâre my rhyme, Every knot I tie, Iâm not afraid of time. Braid my girl, braid my love, While the world outside still feels too above. In this quiet, weâre a wholeâ My girl, my heart, my morning, my soul. [Outro] My girl⊠my soul⊠Just a little while⊠One more braid⊠Before the dawn⊠(Youâre my everythingâŠ)
