Then You Came Along

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sun glazin', sittin' low, park bench is my throne, Head tilted back, let the breeze turn my worries to foam. Ears open to the chirp, no concrete-jungle drone, Just the rustle of the leaves, feelin' finally at home. Old school leather notebook, pen balanced on my knee, Writin' nothin' down, man, just observin' the 'we'. Golden hour hits the bricks, pure elemental therapy, A silent conversation between the world and the free. [Pre-Chorus] Every single day, I was livin' on a low-key altitude, Protected my peace, no entry to my latitude. Had a shield up, never felt the need for gratitude For somethin' more, until you walked in, pure magnitude. [Chorus 1] 'Cause you the hottest thing that I ever had my eyes on, Blew up my serenity, killed the peace I relied on. Girl, you flipped the whole script, made my solo life look hollow, Didn't need a single thing, but you the pill I gotta swallow. [Verse 2] Clocked in, felt the rhythm, that nine-to-five was breezy, The spreadsheets lookin' gorgeous, the data felt too easy. My inbox on vacation, notifications lazy, The whole floor was whisperin', "Yeah, today is gonna pay me." [Pre-Chorus] The quiet got loud, the focus snapped, the whole room swayed, Saw the future flash before me, every plan decayed. [Chorus 2] 'Cause you the reason I walked over when you hit the lobby, Said, "Forget the work flow," now my new focus is your body. I caught your eye, stopped the clock and made a date with you, Everything I chased before, I'm ready to replace with you. [Verse 3] Screen went black, credits roll, the popcorn bowl is empty, Weekend finally landed, I'm livin' large and plenty. Flick the power on the Series, that controller's feelin' weighty, Hit the home screen, feel the pulse, about to run an eighty- [Pre-Chorus] K**l streak in the online lobby, squad up with my fam, Got the headset on, mic check, right before the intro jam. [Chorus 3] 'Cause you the one who grabbed the controller, joined my grind, Took my solo sanctuary and you blew my damn mind. We run the lobby now, a two-player raid on everything, You were the missing piece, the happiness the silence wouldn't bring. [Bridge] Used to think peace was absence, a void you could fill with air, A blank canvas, sittin' solo, showin' the world I don't care. But I was wrong, man, that emptiness was just a gilded cage, Flippin' through the same four chapters on the same lonely page. [Chorus 4] 'Cause you the only exit from the party and the crew, Now my favorite weekend plan is stayin' home with just you. Traded all the noise for the whisper, I ain't looking back, Every empty bottle memory is covered by your track. [Outro]
