[Intro] Soft snare roll, moonlight on the sea, Echoed chords like whispers sayin' stay with me. [Verse 1] You step in slow, like summer breeze on skin, Eyes like phosphor lights where the night begins. Heartbeat sync to the liquid bass below, We move as one, slow sway, gentle and low. Your laugh a vinyl crackle, sweet and worn, Inna di hush of twilight our promises are born. Irie pulse inna mi chest whenever you near, Every little touch draw the skyline clear. [Pre-Chorus] Under starlit riddim, time bend like glass, Tongue of the tide calling, don't let it pass. Mi nah rush the morning, mi nah flee the dark, Stay close, lover, feel the riddim of the heart. [Chorus] You are the bassline that hold me when we fall apart, You are the melody floatin' through mi heart. Riddim of the heart, tune me right, hold me tight, Inna liquid love we drown, but it feel so right. [Verse 2] Skank on the shoreline, toes dig in the sand, Your fingers trace the stories written 'pon my hand. Dubbed-out echoes fold us in a golden wrap, Moonlit harmonies lay a gentle map. Every lil' hush a sermon, every sigh is true, When the world is loud mi only music is you. No need for fancy words, no need for other art, Just your steady breathing keeping time with my heart. [Pre-Chorus] Under starlit riddim, time bend like glass, Tongue of the tide calling, don't let it pass. Mi nah hurry dawn, mi nah fear the dark, Stay close, lover, feel the riddim of the heart. [Chorus] You are the bassline that hold me when we fall apart, You are the melody floatin' through mi heart. Riddim of the heart, tune me right, hold me tight, Inna liquid love we drown, but it feel so right. [Bridge / Drop] Roll the break, let the hi-hats scatter light, Sub-bass hug us gentle inna velvet night. Your whisper echo, dubplate inna mi ear, Sayin' "stay here, mi love, no wah fi fear." We drift on reverb, slow like island time, Lovers on the riddim, rhyme upon rhyme. [Chorus Reprise] You are the bassline that hold me when we fall apart, You are the melody floatin' through mi heart. Riddim of the heart, tune me right, hold me tight, Inna liquid love we drown, but it feel so right. [Outro] Soft snare fade, dawn tiptoe on the bay, Still we carry riddim inna our chest all day. One love, one groove, one slow everlasting start, Keepin' close forever to the riddim of the heart.
