Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Log drum + guitar plucks] First thing you said to me… Wasn’t with words. It was with your smile. ⸻ [Verse 1] 🎶 You said “hello” with a soft accent tone, I said “hello” but my accent showed. You laughed a little, I laughed too, Right there the distance between us grew small and new. We walked slow past the market line, You asked my name, I asked you yours in time. Your language dance when you speak so fast, I tried to follow but it didn’t last. But somehow in the way you move, In the rhythm of your walk and groove, I understood more than words can prove… I was understanding you. 🎶 ⸻ [Hook] 🎶 You speak in drums, I hear in heart, Somehow we understand each part. Different words but the rhythm the same… Every beat saying your name. You speak in drums, I speak in song, Somehow we both belong. No translation when love begins… You speak in drums. 🎶 ⸻ [Verse 2] 🎶 You showed me streets where the children play, Told me stories but I lost my way. Not in the words but the way you smiled, Like you talking to a curious child. You asked me why I came so far, I said “I don’t know, just followed a star.” You laughed and said “maybe it’s true,” “Maybe that star was leading to you.” And in that moment I felt something clear, Like my whole life led me here. Not to a place on any map… But to the moment we both at. 🎶 ⸻ [Hook] 🎶 You speak in drums, I hear in heart, Somehow we understand each part. Different words but the rhythm the same… Every beat saying your name. 🎶 ⸻ [Bridge – Soft vocals] Maybe love… ain’t about speaking the same language. Maybe it’s about feeling the same rhythm. ⸻ [Final Verse] 🎶 Night coming slow, street lights glow, You say you should go but you moving slow. And before you leave you turn again… Smile like this ain’t the end. And I stand there in the cooling air… Understanding something rare. You spoke in drums. And my heart answered back. 🎶 ⸻ [Outro – Log drum fading] Yeah… Some people talk. Some people… speak in rhythm.
