[Intro] Hey there, strawberry soul Dancin' through the heat like you’re in control I was a face in the late-night glow Head down, headphones, nowhere to go Sippin' on light and a daydream high And here I come, that sunny guy Same old sidewalks, same old songs Playing reruns of where I went wrong Then you walked in like a quiet spark Room went blurry, you were sharp in the dark You caught my smile like a second skin One small glance and you let me in [Pre-Chorus – A x B] Didn’t know your name, but something in my chest Started drawing maps to where you rest You said you’re always chasing storms I said I’ve got a better form— All at once the empty seats, the echo in my head Felt a little softer when our eyes met [Chorus – A leads, B answers] Eye contact, hit me like a heart attack All that quiet I was living in, you painted over black One look, and it rewrote the ending of my night Lonely faded out in the back of my mind (Call me Mr. Sunshine) lightin' up your shade Got a pocket full of mischief and a beachside serenade You bring the waves, I’ll bring the flame We’ll make the whole damn sky call out our names Now I’m wide awake, I’m leaning into the crash Your gaze on mine like a match to the gas I was drifting through the dark, now I’m burning in the fact That I fell, I fell, on eye contact [Verse – Stories Collide] You laughed once and the neon shook I caught my breath like a stolen book You said, “You look like trouble in the best way” I said, “Girl, I shine where the clouds stay” We talked small things, then the deeper scars You traced constellations in my midnight heart You wear your heart like a rebel’s badge And I’m the spark that you never had You said, “Don’t fall too fast,” but here we go I’m in your head like a radio I’d been sleeping with the lights turned low You turned up the dimmer and it started to glow [Pre-Chorus – Call & Response] Didn’t plan on this, didn’t plan on you But the life I’d settled for just slipped from view You said, “Don’t try to cage the wild” I said, “Let’s burn free for a while” Every empty Sunday, every quiet autumn sky Got a second meaning when you met my eyes [Big Chorus – Full Blend] Eye contact, hit me like a heart attack All that quiet I was living in, you painted over black (Call me Mr. Sunshine) lightin' up your shade (Mr. Sunshine) beachside serenade One look, and it rewrote the ending of my night Lonely faded out in the back of my mind You bring the waves, I’ll bring the flame We’ll make the whole damn sky call out our names Hey now, hey now, ride my ray Mr. Sunshine's gonna make your day Now I’m wide awake, I’m leaning into the crash Your gaze on mine like a match to the gas [Bridge – Breakdown] I used to keep my distance Hands in pockets, locked in my resistance We’re two wild cards in a heatwave deck You laugh too loud, I dance like a wreck But you broke through in a single blink Pulled me to the edge, made me wanna think Maybe love’s not thunder, maybe it’s a spark A quiet little fire lighting up the dark If it’s chaos, let’s make it art I’m your summertime spark, straight from the heart Now every second that you’re looking back Feels like proof I’ll never go to being that [Final Drop / Post-Chorus] Alone in the glow, just passing time Now I’m tracing the future in your open eyes (Call me Mr. Sunshine) lightin' up your shade Every beat in my chest keeps calling you back To that first, that first eye contact We’ll make the whole damn sky call out our names Just say the word, I’ll chase the rain I was living half-asleep, now I can’t go back Since I fell, I fell, on eye contact Hey now, hey now, ride my ray Mr. Sunshine’s gonna light your way You’re the color running through my grayscale days Eye contact in the sun’s embrace
