Vibe: Sultry, Upbeat, Glossy 90s/00s R&B
Tempo: 102 BPM (A driving, "expensive" sounding beat)
[Intro]
(Deep bassline, a sharp rimshot on the drums, soft "ooh" harmonies)
You know exactly what you’re doing...
Setting the mood with just a few words.
Check it.
[Verse 1]
Candlelight reflecting off the glass
I asked a question just to see if it would pass
I said, "Is this the only thing that keeps you coming 'round?"
Looking at you while I’m... well, I’m holding it down.
I thought I had you figured, thought I knew the play
But you stopped me just to have your say.
[Pre-Chorus]
You put your hand underneath my chin
Told me, "Slow down, let the truth sink in."
You whispered it low, right in my ear
Everything I needed to hear.
[Chorus]
You said, "I like a lot of things about you"
(So many things, baby)
"Don't you ever think my love is divided in two"
It’s not the only thing, no, it’s not the only way
But when we’re in this rhythm, what can I say?
It’s just my favorite thing...
Yeah, my favorite thing about you.
[Verse 2]
Now the room is getting heavy, the air is getting thin
I’m starting back up where we just left in
You love my mind and you love my soul
But right now, you’re losing all control
It’s a specific kind of magic, a private kind of art
And I’m playing my favorite part.
[Bridge]
(Beat drops out, just a pulsing synth)
Keep it a secret, keep it between us
The way that you want me, the way that you need this
You said there’s a list a mile long
But this is the one that inspired the song.
[Chorus]
"I like a lot of things about you"
(You know I do, girl)
"Don't you ever think my love is divided in two"
It’s not the only thing, no, it’s not the only way
But when we’re in this rhythm, what can I say?
It’s just my favorite thing...
My favorite thing about you.
[Outro]
(Upbeat tempo continues, heavy ad-libs)
It’s the favorite... (the way you move it)
Yeah, it’s the favorite... (the way you do it)
You said you like a lot of things.
But I know what you’re thinking.
I know what you’re feeling.
(Fade out with a playful laugh)
