Hope She’s the One

[Verse]
Lotta love letters in the trash, torn confetti
Heart steady, but the scars heavy, sharp machete
Swipe left, swipe right, it’s a gamble, roulette-y
Looking for a queen, but I’m trapped in spaghetti
I met her, though, skin glow like a sunrise
Voice a melody, made my dumb pride tongue-tied
Is she the dream? Or just another punchline?
I’m scared to ask, so I laugh at the upside
[Chorus]
Hope she’s the one, I’m praying she’s the one
Moonlight in her smile, got my shadows on the run
Hope she’s the one, man, I hope she’s the one
Every word from her lips, feel the weight of the sun
[Verse 2]
My past full of potholes, love on the shoulder
But she a map, every glance says "come closer"
World's colder, but she warmer than a toaster
Heart skips beats like a DJ with no folder
She got me thinking ‘bout a house and a dog
From the club nights to a walk in the fog
Used to run, now I’m caught in her dialogue
Soul stitched to her rhythm, she’s my monologue
[Bridge]
What if I’m wrong, and it’s just another show?
What if she’s gone, and I’m left to overflow?
Questions in my mind, but my heart saying no
Hold tight, let it grow, let it grow
