Meant for You

Verse 1 (Male Voice – Smooth, mid-low range, conversational R&B delivery) (Think Daniel Caesar / Maxwell style, light vibrato, intimate tone) “I was searching in the silence” → sing in a descending melody, gentle fall (around G → E). “Lost in shadows of the night” → sustain “night” with a slight run. “Every heartbeat felt so empty” → rise a step higher, give breathy soul emphasis on “empty.” “Till your soul stepped into mine” → slide up on “mine,” hold with vibrato. Pre-Chorus (Female Voice – soft build, airy tone, then stronger at the end) (Think H.E.R. / Alicia Keys style) “And when the world feels heavy” → start low, rising gently. “You lift the weight with just one touch” → sustain “touch,” add a little melisma (touch→uh-uh). “Every word, every whisper” → soft, syncopated phrasing. “Isn’t just love— it’s more than enough” → crescendo into “enough,” belt with warmth. Chorus (Both – call & response, then harmonized) (Big, soaring, emotional — this is the payoff) Male: “’Cause you’re my forever…” → strong entry, sustain “forever” with soul run. Female (answer): “My reason, my truth…” → belt “truth” slightly higher register. Both: “Every lifetime, I’d still choose you…” → harmonize (male low 3rd, female upper 5th). Together (softer): “Through fire and water, through all we go through…” → keep rhythm steady, soulful layering. Final line: “I know my soul was meant for you” → both sustain long “youuuu,” female can riff upwards, male holds lower vibrato. Verse 2 (Female Voice – emotional storytelling) (Like Beyoncé in her soft R&B mode) “I can feel your heart inside me” → melodic lift, sweet, slightly airy. “Like a rhythm to my song” → syncopate “rhythm” with a bounce. “Even silence speaks the language” → softer, descending phrase. “That we’ve been writing all along” → belt “all along,” then drop into falsetto echo. Bridge (Duet – Call & Response, then merge) (This is the emotional climax — both voices climb higher, layering harmonies) Male: “Even when we’re worlds apart…” → lower octave, calm but firm. Female: “I can hear you in my heart…” → higher, airy, gliding upwards. Male: “Every lifetime, every star…” → stepwise upward, emphasize “star.” Female: “Brings me closer to where you are.” → belt “are,” soulful riff. Both (together): “Nothing can break us, not time, not fate…” → belt in harmony, dramatic pause. Both: “This love’s eternal, we can’t escape.” → sustained, fade slightly before chorus. Final Chorus (Big harmonies + ad-libs) (Think Mariah Carey + Usher duet feel — lots of soul runs and layered harmonies) Female does ad-libs: “Foreverrrr, my love… ohhh, yeah yeah yeah…” Male stays grounded with steady melody, letting female soar above. Both sustain “youuuuu” in harmony, ending with a soft fade. Outro (Soft, fading, intimate) Whispered/sung: “My soul was meant… my soul was meant… my soul was meant for you.” Final note: Female rises on “youuuuu” with a high run, male fades in low harmony.
