Description
This is not a love story — it's a story of co-presence.

Two people, like light and shadow — never quite touching, yet living within each other.
She is his breath. He is her trace in eternity.

They are connected not by time or circumstance,
but by the silence between the lines, where the real words live.
There is nothing to prove, nothing to explain — they simply are.

This song is an inner dialogue of the soul with its own reflection,
where solitude does not mean emptiness, and presence needs no body.

It is not a beginning, nor an end.
It is forever. In one silence.

Every step she takes is an echo of what never left — but quietly dissolved.
He is not beside her, yet he’s in every reflection, in every breath of wind,
in every shimmer of light in a puddle.

She doesn't seek his gaze — it's enough to feel he exists.
Not in form. In shadow. In herself.

They are never seen together,
but the space between the lines is filled with them.

They are like two reflections on water — never touching, but always present.
Not to be — but to resonate, softly, deeply, endlessly.
The silence between them is not an end — it’s infinity.
She is his breath. He is her calm.

Their footsteps fade into the distance — the eternal distance.
Leaving no trace — only echo.

Visual Style (for animation/video)
Pencil sketch with subtle watercolor wash.
Soft transitions, delicate texture of paper.
Muted, dreamlike, minimal, but emotionally resonant.

Lyrics (translated)
[Verse 1]
You — like the echo in my steps,
I — like the light in your dreams.
We don’t search for words —
There’s already too much meaning in us.
The silence between the lines is not emptiness —
It’s us… forever.
You are in my shadow,
I am in your breath.

[Chorus]
You are in me,
And I am in you.
We don’t exist in time —
Only in fate.
You — my peace,
I — your edge.
We are reflections,
Into the endless beyond.

[Verse 2]
We don’t need a house —
We live in each other.
Light and darkness
Entwine in sound.
In every moment —
You’re with me,
Even if the whole world
Becomes a stranger.

[Instrumental – atmospheric guitar & light synth]

[Bridge]
You — my trace in eternity,
I — your voice in silence.
We don’t need proof —
We live on the same wave.

[Finale – whispered]
I’m near,
You — in me.
Forever,
In one silence...
