Intro
Yeah…
Wasn’t even looking, girl, and then you showed up
Ain’t that how it always go…
Verse 1
Wasn’t in the club, wasn’t on my phone swipin’
Found you in the quiet, in the moments I wasn’t tryin’
Ain’t expect it, girl, you came from outta nowhere
Now you all I think about, girl, and it ain’t even fair
I done had my walls up, kept it guarded, kept it closed
But you crept up on me slow, now that’s the only love I know
Right place, wrong time — nah, it was perfect timing
No cap, girl, you found me right when I stopped designing
Pre-Hook
(vocal chops, hi-hats building)
Didn’t even see it coming — (see it coming)
But you here, and you ain’t running
Ooh, you got me — (you got me)
Right where I wasn’t looking
Hook
You the one that stayed when everybody left
You the one that held me down before I caught my breath
Day in, day out, girl, you never switch up on me
Understand my silence like you already know me
Found true love in the last place I was searching
Now you all I need, girl, ain’t no more deserting
Always there, always down, never once did you fold
Right where I wasn’t looking, that’s where I found my soul
Verse 2
You don’t need the words, girl, you just read my energy
Late nights when I’m quiet, you just sit right next to me
Never askin’ questions when I need the space to breathe
Just present, just patient — girl, that’s rare to see
You had my back when the whole world had turned they back
Stayed solid, stayed grounded, ain’t no cracks
Understanding, girl, like you been here before
Found something real when I wasn’t looking anymore
Bridge
(stripped down, just keys and vocals)
Sometimes the realest things come when you least expect
Sometimes the ones who stay ain’t the ones you’d project
No fireworks, no rush, just a steady kind of glow
The kind of love that grows quiet, but it never lets go
That’s you… that’s us…
Right where I wasn’t looking, found the one I trust
Final Hook
Day in, day out, you been showing up for me
Understanding, patient, that’s the love that’s meant to be
Found true love in the last place I was searching
Now you all I need, girl, ain’t no more deserting
Always there, always down, never once did you fold
Right where I wasn’t looking, that’s where I found my soul
Outro
(fading vocals, ad-libs)
Yeah… didn’t even see it coming
But you here… and that’s all that matters
Right where I wasn’t looking…
(beat fades out)
