[Verse 1]
Met you in the heat of a small-town day
Laughter like the waves in Manila Bay
Sun in your hair
Sandals in your hand
You turned and smiled
I forgot who I am
[Chorus]
Maylen
My morning light
You turn my wrongs into something right
From the islands straight into my heart
(oh Maylen)
Every little look pulls me apart
Maylen
My sweetest dream
You’re the only home I’ve ever seen
From the Philippines to wherever we go
I’m loving you more than you’ll ever know
[Verse 2]
Coffee in a cup
You’re humming that tune
Bare face beauty in the afternoon
Talking ‘bout your plans
Simple and brave
You say “we’ll make it” and I’m not afraid
[Chorus]
Maylen
My morning light
You turn my wrongs into something right
From the islands straight into my heart
(oh Maylen)
Every little look pulls me apart
Maylen
My sweetest dream
You’re the only home I’ve ever seen
From the Philippines to wherever we go
I’m loving you more than you’ll ever know
[Bridge]
If the world gets cold
If the night feels long
I will hold you close
I will keep you strong
Every road we take
Every sky we chase
I just wanna see your smiling face (yeah)
[Chorus]
Maylen
My morning light
You turn my wrongs into something right
From the islands straight into my heart
(oh Maylen)
Every little look pulls me apart
Maylen
My sweetest dream
You’re the only home I’ve ever seen
From the Philippines to wherever we go
I’m loving you more than you’ll ever know
