The Beginning

Låttext

[Verse 1 — Jed] Jenna walks in smiling, Nic’s barefoot in the kitchen, And they keep catching each other’s eyes. I stand between them, Noticing every glance, Every quiet moment, Every shift in the room. The house is warm and dim, The windows hold the last blue light, And the record turns in the corner Like it knows what’s coming tonight. Nic pours another drink, Jenna laughs at something small, And somehow every ordinary thing Feels charged against the walls. [Pre-Chorus] Jenna pushes back her hair. Nic looks at me. You seeing this? Yeah. I’m seeing everything. The way Jenna bites her lip, The way Nic doesn’t look away, The way the silence between them Keeps getting harder to explain. [Chorus] Nic leans closer, Her hand on my shoulder. Jenna meets her stare, Her fingers brushing mine. Nic is warm on my left, Jenna’s knee against my right. One woman I know by heart, One I’m learning breath by breath. And sitting between them, With the whole room holding still, I feel the night unfolding Exactly how it will. And sitting between them, I don’t miss a thing. [Verse 2 — Jed] Nic moves toward Jenna, Slow and certain. She brushes back her hair. Jenna leans into her hand. The gesture lasts a second, Maybe two, but that’s enough. I see the question in Jenna’s eyes, The answer in Nic’s touch. Then Nic pulls me closer, And Jenna watches us. Nic whispers my name. Jenna catches me staring. “Stop staring.” I laugh. I wasn’t planning to. But I can’t help the way I look, Can’t hide the way I feel. There’s something in the room tonight That suddenly feels real. Jenna shakes her head, But she’s smiling when she does. Nic raises up her glass Like she already knows what’s up. [Chorus] Nic leans closer, Her hand on my shoulder. Jenna meets her stare, Her fingers brushing mine. Nic is warm on my left, Jenna’s knee against my right. One woman I know by heart, One I’m learning breath by breath. And sitting between them, With the whole room holding still, I feel the night unfolding Exactly how it will. And sitting between them, I don’t miss a thing. [Verse 3 — Jed] Nic kisses me first, Then looks at Jenna. Not asking with a question, Just leaving room for her to choose. Jenna grows quiet, Daring and focused, With nothing left to lose. I take her hand. She doesn’t pull away. Her first kiss is careful, Then she smiles against me. It starts out soft and uncertain, Then turns into something bright. The kind of moment you remember Long after the morning light. Nic laughs softly And pulls her closer. “Don’t get shy now.” Jenna rolls her eyes, But she’s laughing too. Her hand stays wrapped in mine Like she’s decided what to do. Jesus Christ. I’ve known Nic for years, Know every look and every sound, But watching Jenna open up Feels like discovering new ground. [Verse 4 — Jed] Nic gets bolder As Jenna settles in. Jenna tests everything first— My wrist, Nic’s hand, Then the space between us. She moves with careful courage, Like she’s mapping out the night, Finding every place where comfort Turns into appetite. Soon she’s reaching for Nic, Leaning across me, Looking straight into my eyes. There’s a question in that look, But there’s mischief in it too. Like she wants to see exactly What I’m willing to let her do. Nic grins over her shoulder. “What?” Jenna asks. “Nothing,” Nic says. It absolutely ain’t nothing. The room gets smaller around us, The air gets thick and sweet. Every time they touch each other, I feel it underneath. The record skips a little, The ice melts in the glass, And every careful boundary Starts becoming part of the past. [Bridge — Jed] Nic’s perfume and whiskey. Jenna’s hair against my neck. Their hands finding each other Across my chest. Nic moves like she belongs here. Jenna discovers where she fits. The couch is crowded, The room is spinning, And the night keeps pulling us along. Jenna’s laughing into Nic’s shoulder, Nic is humming with the song. How did a quiet drink at home Turn into something I can’t forget? How did the woman I’ve always known And the woman I just met End up tangled in my arms Like they were always meant to? And how do I slow this night down? [Breakdown — Jed, low and rough] Nic smiles when I watch her. Jenna holds my gaze And starts looking back. Now she knows We’re both watching. And she likes it. She leans in closer, Lets the silence say enough. Nic’s fingers find my wrist, And Jenna’s touch turns soft. No one’s pretending anymore. No one’s trying to be polite. There’s a spark beneath the laughter, And it’s burning through the night. [Final Chorus] Nic lies close beside me, Jenna tucked against my shoulder. Nic smiles at her. Jenna smiles back. The whole world can wait outside. The morning can take its turn. For now, there’s only skin and breath And the quiet way we burn. Nic kisses my cheek and Jenna On my lips They're bodies on me as I Grab their hips. This isn't the end It's the beginning
