Each composition tells a story of connection and longing, reflecting the vulnerability and beauty of opening up to someone who already knows your soul. With its sweeping strings, gentle harmonies, and moments of quiet intensity, this playlist feels like the soundtrack to a heartfelt conversation, a stolen glance, or a shared smile that means so much more.

“"I’ve loved you ever since I’ve known you, Jo. I couldn’t help it. I’ve tried to show it all this time, but you only see me as your friend. But you’re more than that to me."
