CaraTin - Ten centimeters

Описание: Head down, scrolling just to kill some time,
Looking left and right like I’m crossing a line.
Deep inside, I knew it in advance—
My quiet little wishes never stand a chance.

Then the crowd split open, like a scene on cue,
White shirt, soft light—
and it was you.
First time a hope came true for me,
And I swear the whole station disappeared quietly.

Turned my face away before our eyes could meet,
’Cause one second would’ve made my heart too easy to read.
But the glass in front of me told on everything I felt,
A ten-centimeter reflection—
and I couldn’t help myself.

And I know you don’t mean it,
No, you don’t feel it,
You’re not thinking ’bout me when you’re walking by.
I know you got nothing,
No hidden something,
No little hope you’re holding inside.
But I can’t stop it,
God, I can’t stop it—
When I see you, I lose my mind.
Yeah I know you don’t want me,
But I want you every time.

Ten centimeters, that’s all it took,
One little touch and I’m falling too much.
Ten centimeters, too close, too real,
Too close to hide how I feel.

You walked my way like you didn’t see,
Like I wasn’t breaking quietly.
Our sleeves brushed, just fabric and air,
The kind of distance that isn’t fair.

Couldn’t see your face, just your silhouette,
But thank God for light—
it goes straight, no regrets.
So you couldn’t catch my eyes when they gave me away,
’Cause if you saw them, you’d know what I couldn’t say.

When I see you, time turns still,
Every sound fades out against my will.
And it’s crazy how a crowded room
Can feel like only me and you.

And I know you don’t mean it,
No, you don’t feel it,
You’re not thinking ’bout me when you’re walking by.
I know you got nothing,
No hidden something,
No little hope you’re holding inside.
But I can’t stop it,
God, I can’t stop it—
When I see you, I lose my mind.
Yeah I know you don’t want me,
But I want you every time.

Ten centimeters, that’s all it took,
One little touch and I’m falling too much.
Ten centimeters, too close, too real,
Too close to hide how I feel.

On the metro, I found my place,
Turned around—
and there was your face.
A smile, a wave, a simple “hey,”
Like it didn’t ruin my whole day.

No words after, just standing there,
Sweaty palms and electric air.
Texting my friends like “say something back,”
Trying to breathe while my chest went cracked.

And maybe you felt nothing at all,
Maybe I was the only one who fell.

’Cause I know you don’t mean it,
No, you don’t feel it,
You’re not thinking ’bout me when you’re walking by.
I know you got nothing,
No hidden something,
No little hope you’re holding inside.
But I can’t stop it,
God, I can’t stop it—
When I see you, I lose my mind.
Yeah I know you don’t want me,
But I want you every time.

Ten centimeters, that’s all it took,
One little touch and I’m falling too much.
Ten centimeters, too close, too real,
Too close to hide how I feel.

Ten centimeters, I look away,
But you walk right past me anyway.
Ten centimeters, you’ll never know—
The only thing I loved was your smile so close.
