Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I see you built that wall brick by lonely brick, But I’m standing here with mortar made of patience, thick. I’m not the flash of fireworks, not the roar of the crowd, Just a steady voice in the quiet, saying your name out loud. [Pre-Chorus] I know you’ve been burned by the bright lights before, Promises that crumbled like chalk on the floor. But I’m not here to dazzle, I’m here to stay— Through every canceled plan and every stormy day. [Chorus] Let me be the one to love you, When the sky forgets the sun and the night won’t let you sleep. Let me be the one to hold you, Till the thunder turns to whispers and the hurt no longer seeps. I’m not asking you to tear the walls down tonight, Just crack the door, let the light slip inside— All I need is one chance to show you I’m the one. [Verse 2] I see the way you flinch when someone says “forever,” Like it’s a pitch you’ve swung at and missed too many times. But I bring more than poetry and late-night confessions, I bring the mornings after, the quiet lessons. I’ll carry your secrets like a glove in my back pocket, Warm them in my hands when the world turns cold and locks it. [Pre-Chorus] You think love’s a highlight reel, all grand slams and cheers, But I’m the guy in the dugout wiping sweat and tears. I’ll learn your silences, memorize your storms, Turn every rainy day into a place that feels like home. [Chorus] Let me be the one to love you, When the sky forgets the sun and the night won’t let you sleep. Let me be the one to hold you, Till the thunder turns to whispers and the hurt no longer seeps. I’m not asking you to tear the walls down tonight, Just look past the shadows, see what I bring to the fight— All I need is one chance to prove I’m the one. [Bridge] I know you’ve got a fortress, and I’ve got no battering ram, Just true feelings and a heart that gives a damn. I’ll sit in the bleachers of your hesitation, Cheer for every small step, every quiet revelation. You don’t have to believe me yet—just believe you’re worth A love that doesn’t vanish when the sky falls to earth. [Final Chorus – raw, rising] Let me be the one to love you, When the world’s too loud and your heart’s running on empty. Let me be the one to hold you, Till the rain becomes a rhythm and the pain feels temporary. I’m not your savior, I’m your teammate in the stands, With lots of hope and open hands. Look past the walls, see the man who understands— One chance is all I need to show you I’m the one. [Outro] So here’s to the Short Stop, here’s to the rain, Here’s to the girl who might let me stay. One crack in the door, one flicker of light— I’ll spend every tomorrow making “one chance” feel right.
