(Intro)
(A bright, clean electric guitar plays a rhythmic "Stand By Me" style riff)
(Sean Kingston style "Yeah-yeah!" and Bieber-style "Ooh, woah")
(Check it, one time)
(Verse 1)
I see you standing by the edge of the pier
The ocean breeze is whispering in my ear.
You got that vintage look, that 50s style
I’d walk a thousand miles just to see that smile.
My heart is skipping like a stone on the lake
I’m giving you everything I got to take.
(Pre-Chorus)
(The bass gets deep and bouncy—the "One-Drop" beat begins)
Oh, the rhythm's calling out your name
And I know you’re feeling just the same.
Stop the clock, yeah, stop the game...
(Chorus)
(Full Reggae-Pop explosion—think "Eenie Meenie" energy)
Baby, pull me closer, don’t let go
Move your body to the rhythm, take it slow.
From the islands to the city, you’re the show
Baby, pull me closer, don’t let go.
(Yeah, mash up my mind, girl)
(You’re the only one I wanna find, girl)
(Verse 2)
(Sing this with a smooth, "melodic-rap" flow)
I’m like a sailor lost out at sea
Until you shine your light right back at me.
Got the R&B soul with the Kingston heat
Making every heartbeat skip to the beat.
No more distance, no more space
I’m home every time I see your face.
(Bridge)
(The music strips back to just the "Stand By Me" bassline and snaps)
Left foot, right foot, slide with me
Underneath the shade of the mango tree.
I don’t need the world if I got your hand
You’re the prettiest girl in all the land.
(Chorus)
Baby, pull me closer, don’t let go
Move your body to the rhythm, take it slow.
From the islands to the city, you’re the show
Baby, pull me closer, don’t let go.
