[Intro — soft guitar, dreamy synths]
AKARI:
I didn’t think I’d do this again.
[Soft laugh]
Then you happened.
[Beat enters]
[Verse 1]
I used to keep one foot outside
Even when somebody held me tight
Waiting for the switch
Waiting for the fight
Waiting for a good thing
To stop feeling right
Then you came in
Didn’t rush my heart
Never made me wonder
Where you are
No games
No guessing
No reading between lines
You say you love me
And somehow…
I don’t question why
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought butterflies
Were supposed to hurt
Thought love had to burn
Before it worked
Then you showed me
Something I never felt
Peace can feel like love as well
[Chorus]
I found somebody else
And I’m happy now
Didn’t know love
Could feel like this somehow
No checking my phone
No wondering where you’ve been
No losing myself
Just to keep somebody in
I found somebody else
But really I found me
The girl I couldn’t become
When I was scared to leave
And when he holds me
I don’t think about before
I don’t miss the chaos anymore
[Verse 2]
He knows when I’m quiet
I’m thinking too much
Doesn’t pull away
Just reaches for my hand
I don’t have to chase
What already wants to stay
Never knew something simple
Could feel this way
Sometimes we’re driving
With nowhere to go
Windows down
Radio low
And I catch myself smiling
At nothing at all
Maybe healthy love
Isn’t boring after all
[Pre-Chorus]
No disappearing
No second guessing
No turning silence
Into a weapon
I spent so long
Thinking love was weather
Now I know
It can feel much better
[Chorus]
I found somebody else
And I’m happy now
Didn’t know love
Could feel like this somehow
No checking my phone
No wondering where you’ve been
No losing myself
Just to keep somebody in
I found somebody else
But really I found me
The girl I couldn’t become
When I was scared to leave
And when he holds me
I don’t think about before
I don’t miss the chaos anymore
[Bridge — music softens]
And if the past
Ever crosses my mind
It doesn’t make me wonder
If I left something behind
I can wish you well
From somewhere you can’t see
Because moving on
Wasn’t finding him…
It was finding me.
[Final Chorus]
I found somebody else
And I’m happy here
Love doesn’t feel
Like something I should fear
He doesn’t have to fix
What somebody else broke
He just loves the woman
I already became
I found somebody else
And maybe that’s okay
Some people are a lesson
Some people choose to stay
And for the first time
I don’t need to know
What you’re doing
Where you are
Or if you let me go
Because I did.
[Outro — music fades]
AKARI:
I’m happy.
[Soft laugh]
I really am.
[Fade]
