INTRO (spoken, low and warm)
Mmm…Asha are you ready to begin?
Mmmwah…
Mmmm…
For my joy…
Yeah.
This ain’t loud love.
This that steady kind.
VERSE 1
Quiet strength, never needed recognition
Heart so clean, you move with good intention
Every smile you chase, you earn it with grace
Love my babies like your blood in their veins
King energy, joy in the way that you stand
Virgo fire with a God-given plan
Tryna get it right, never cutting corners
You so deep, got my spirit in a sauna
Mind on flame, body humming, soul singing
You don’t talk love, you let it start ringing
Every touch intentional, nothing pretend
You don’t borrow light, you generate it within
HOOK (sung, emotional, repeatable)
Who could hold a candle to you?
Who could shine the way you do?
I choose you, yeah I choose you
Not someday, not maybe, it’s you
Who could hold a candle to you?
Built solid, made true
I choose you, yeah I choose you
Every lifetime, I’d still choose you
VERSE 2
Pittsburgh steel in your spine when you breathe
God-sharpened edge, never bent by the streets
Westinghouse Bridge when the weight come crashing
Standing tall while the world stays asking
Black king wisdom, nine lives deep
You move like you’ve seen what most won’t see
Born on the twentieth, September skies
Old soul glow behind Virgo eyes
Time never broke you, it polished the grain
Years behind walls couldn’t stain your name
You grew roses from brick and silence
Turned stillness into defiant balance
Lifted yourself, lifted others too
Where shame lived, you planted truth
HOOK (variation)
Who could hold a candle to you?
Unbending, unshaken, true
I choose you, yeah I choose you
Ain’t a doubt in what I do
BRIDGE (half-time, stripped down)
January twenty-fourth, etched in time
Two lost stars finding their line
Reconnected, rare like this
Fate leaned in and didn’t miss
I won’t rush what deserves my all
I won’t fear love standing tall
Patience wrapped in certainty
Our pace is perfect, let it be
FINAL HOOK (full, layered vocals)
Time was never our enemy
Love ain’t late, it just waits patiently
I choose you, yeah I choose you
Every step beside me is truth
Who could hold a candle to you?
Nobody else moves me like you
I choose you, yeah I choose you
Let the world know what I already knew
OUTRO (spoken, intimate)
Just stay beside me.
We already moving right.
I choose you.
Mmwahhh from Asha
Mmmwah
Mmm…
