Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] First time that I saw you Name hit me like a sunrise Rolled it on my tongue Slow Tasted like a sweet surprise You laughed at my accent Said it like a melody Now it’s stuck inside my head Playing on repeat [Chorus] Nino Janiyah Say your name and the room gets brighter Every syllable takes me higher Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah (oh yeah) Write it on my heart like a lighter Burning through the dark Through the quiet Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah [Verse 2] You’re dancing in the kitchen Bare feet on the cold tile Humming something off-key Still It makes me smile You say I overthink it I just shrug and pull you near Two letters at a time Love Spell you in my ear [Chorus] Nino Janiyah Say your name and the room gets brighter Every syllable takes me higher Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah (hey) Write it on my heart like a lighter Burning through the dark Through the quiet Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah [Bridge] If I forget every word I know If the days all blur and go I’ll keep one soft little phrase On my tongue Like a prayer Like a flame [Chorus] Nino Janiyah Say your name and the room gets brighter Every syllable takes me higher Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah (oh) Write it on my heart like a lighter Burning through the dark Through the quiet Nino Janiyah Nino Janiyah
