VERSE 1 — (Lead vocal, whispered then deepens)
Presence…intimacy…
You ain’t just in my space, you live inside my frequency.
Soon as I see you, baby, passion ignites instantly—
Our lips collide, and suddenly,
They’re making love to the prophecy of everything we’re about to be.
Every touch is guided by a force we can’t explain,
Hands searching like they’re trying to memorize your name.
Bodies spark fire, friction turns to flame,
And nothing in existence feels the same…
⸻
PRE-HOOK — (3-part harmony, sensual)
Your breath on me… becomes the air I breathe
Your touch on me… feels like eternity
Your soul on mine… unlocks the secrecy
Of our love’s design…
⸻
HOOK / CHORUS — (FULL 5-PART HARMONY, rich and thick)
Come hold on to my love…
No matter how… deep we fall tonight
Hold on to my touch…
No matter how… far we go inside
It’s something more than physical
The universe gon’ testify
’Cause loving you is spiritual
And baby, this can’t be denied
No matter how…
No matter how…
Hold on to your love
(Repeat last line with ad-libs and harmonies weaving around it)
⸻
VERSE 2 — (Lead switches — higher tone, airy, feminine echo responses optional)
Your moans turn into music
A rhythm only we produce, nobody else can ever use it.
Heavy breathing paints the moment, every sound’s a sacred fusion—
My desire follows yours, like instinct… no illusion.
I slide deeper into the diamond-encrypted secrecy of your love—
A portal opens up above, we lose the sense of where we are,
Our minds and bodies sync like galaxies aligning stars,
And what we make together can’t be copied—
Though they’ll try… forever trying, never finding who we are.
⸻
BRIDGE — (Call & Response / Counterpoint harmonies)
Lead: Take me deeper… deeper than before
Backgrounds: Deeper… deeper…
Lead: Every second with you opens up another door
Backgrounds: Open wide… open wide…
Lead: Our souls are instruments—listen how they play
(All harmonies stack)
Love’s symphony… won’t fade away…
⸻
CHORUS — (Bigger, more layered than first)
Hold on to my love…
No matter how… wild the night becomes
Hold on to my touch…
No matter how… far our bodies run
This feeling’s irreplaceable
It’s one of one, it’s you and I
This love ain’t duplicatable
No matter how they try
No matter how…
No matter how…
Hold on to your love
⸻
OUTRO — (FALSETTO + BASS COUNTERMOTION, slow fade)
Falsetto: No matter how… no matter how…
Bass: I ain’t letting go… I ain’t letting go…
Harmony stack:
Hold on… hold on… hold on…
(breathy whispers, lips close to mic)
