Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – A Cappella Stack] High (falsetto): Ooo… Mid: Mmm… Low: Yeah… (pads fade in, tempo ~70 BPM) ⸻ [Verse 1 – Lead (light mid harmony on last line)] I see the way you smile when you say his name, But I hear the hurt when things don’t change. You say you’re fine, say it’s all okay, But your eyes tell a story you don’t say. I been the one you call when it’s late, When you need someone who listens and stays. I don’t cross lines, I don’t pretend, I just wonder why you settle again. Mid (soft): “…settle again…” ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Build (Lead + Mid, High on endings)] Lead: I don’t wanna disrespect what you got, Mid: (same line, lower) High: “Whatcha got…” Lead: But I can’t ignore what I feel when we talk, Mid: (same line) High: “We taaalk…” Lead: If you ever question what love should be, Mid: (same line) High: “Shooould be…” Lead: Just know you always had it with me. All (soft): “With me…” ⸻ [Chorus – FULL 90s STACK] Lead (Center) He can’t love you like I can, He don’t see you the way I do. He don’t hold you when you break down, He don’t fight for you like I would. Harmony Stack • High (Falsetto – Left): “Like I caaaan…” / “The waaay I do…” • Mid (Right): “He can’t love you like I can…” • Low (Center, subtle): “He can’t…” / “Like I can…” (Hold “like I caaaan” for 2 beats) ⸻ [Verse 2 – Lead (more mid harmony than Verse 1)] He keep you guessin’, leave you unsure, I’d be consistent, steady, and sure. You shouldn’t have to ask for time, Or wonder if you’re still on his mind. I know it’s hard when your heart involved, I know it’s scary to change it all. But every time you need what’s real, You end up here ‘cause you know how I feel. Mid: “…how I feel…” ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Stronger Build] Lead: I won’t rush your heart or force a plan, Mid: (same) High: “A plaaaan…” Lead: I respect the space you’re standin’ in, Mid: (same) High: “Staandin’ iiin…” Lead: But if you ever choose to walk away, Mid: (same) High: “Awaaay…” Lead: I’ll be right here lovin’ you my way. Low (warm): “My waaay…” ⸻ [Chorus – BIGGER STACK] He can’t love you like I can, He don’t see you the way I do. He don’t hold you when you break down, He don’t fight for you like I would. High: “Like I caaaan…” Mid: “He can’t looove you…” Low: “He caaaan’t…” ⸻ [Bridge – 90s Breakdown] (Lead solo at first) I’m not sayin’ he’s a bad man, I’m just sayin’ I know who I am. (Harmonies fade in) Mid: “Who I aaam…” High: “Ohhh…” If you choose him, I’ll step aside, But I won’t lie ‘bout what’s inside. Low: “Inside…” ⸻ [Key Change – Half Step Up] (Classic 90s) ⸻ [Final Chorus – MAX STACK] Lead He can’t love you like I can, With the patience and the truth. He don’t cherish every part of you, The way I always do. Harmony Wall • High: “Like I caaaan…” • Mid: “He can’t looove you…” • Low: “He can’t…” (Hold final “like I caaaan” for 3 bars) ⸻ [Outro – Harmonies Only] High: Ooo… Mid: Mmm… Low: Yeah… (fade out)
