[Intro]
(Clean, rhythmic electric guitar scratches. A light hi-hat tap starts the tempo.)
Vocals: It’s all about L.O.V.E
It’s all about love
[Drum Fill: Snare crack]
Vocals: Yeah it’s all the remedy
Bringing you up (up, up)
(Bass guitar enters with a bouncy, walking line. Light tambourine on every beat.)
[Verse 1]
(Drums drop to a steady kick-drum pulse. Palm-muted guitar keeps the rhythm.)
Late night / Long day
Heart feels heavy in the hallway
You’ve been running in the same maze
Same grey / Same shame
(Piano chords enter here, warm and sustained.)
But I got a spark in my pocket
A little light you can borrow
We can turn this pain into color
Right here / Not tomorrow
[Chorus]
(The whole band explodes. Bright Trumpet and Saxophone stabs on the letters L-O-V-E.)
It’s all about L.O.V.E
It’s all about love
When it’s breaking you down / We be lifting you up
Every crack in your heart / We can fill it with trust
[Brass Riff: Da-da-da-DA!]
It’s all about L.O.V.E / Yeah
It’s all the remedy
Bringing you up / Bringing you up
[Verse 2]
(Instruments drop back to just Bass and Drums—very "groovier" and stripped back.)
Text me / “I’m not okay”
I pull up / Sneakers on the driveway
We don’t even have to talk much
Just breathe / Just stay
(Hammond B3 Organ swells in the background, adding a "church" or "soul" warmth.)
I’ll sit on the floor right beside you
’Til the storm runs out of thunder
We’ll rewrite the words in your story
From “alone” into “another”
[Chorus]
(Full energy again. Heavy crash cymbals and driving rhythm guitar.)
It’s all about L.O.V.E
It’s all about love...
[Bridge]
(Music shifts to a half-time "stomp and clap" feel. No drums, just heavy foot stomps and hand claps.)
When the world feels cold
I’ll be that warm old sweater (oh)
Every “never getting better”
We can turn it to “together”
(Building snare roll starts here, getting louder and faster...)
Spell it out slow / Let it fall from your tongue
Every letter like a ladder
Pulling you out of the sunless— [CRASH!]
[Chorus]
(Maximum volume. The Brass section plays a counter-melody behind the vocals.)
It’s all about L.O.V.E
It’s all about love...
[Outro]
(Instruments drop out one by one. First the brass, then the drums.)
It’s all about L.O.V.E
(Only the Bass and a single acoustic guitar remain.)
All about love
Little word / Big medicine
(Final Chord: A soft, sustained piano ring.)
Bringing you up
