[INTRO — shouted tag, immediate bass stab] K-K-K KYRODITH! Only you get it. [VERSE 1 — playful female vocal, UK garage swing] You say “apricot” across the room. I nearly spit my drink. Nobody knows why that’s funny. You don’t even have to wink. There’s a story we tell badly, Getting worse each time we try. You forget the actual ending; I remember how you cried. [PRE-CHORUS — rising bass pressure, melodic lift] One word. That face. I’m back At your place. First month. Bad wine. You laughed. So did I. [CHORUS — strong emotional melody, memorable hook] We’ve got a private dictionary, Things that only mean us. You say something ordinary; I hear the month we fell in love. I love you in a language We keep making as we go. Half a sentence from your mouth— And I’m the only one who knows. Only you. Only me. Whole conversations In a word nobody needs. [DROP — massive rolling sub, chopped female hook] Say that— I get it. Say that— Don’t explain it. You know. I know. There’s that look. There I go. [VERSE 2 — warm, rhythmic, confident] You’ve renamed the neighbour’s terrier After someone from my job. Now I can’t attend a meeting Without trying not to laugh. There’s a word for when I’m hungry But insist I want a kiss. You invented it last Tuesday. I’ve been using it since. [PRE-CHORUS — stripped drums, intimate delivery] Your words. My mouth. Look what We worked out. More days. More names. Nothing Stays plain. [CHORUS — full female lead, stacked harmonies] We’ve got a private dictionary, Things that only mean us. You say something ordinary; I hear the month we fell in love. I love you in a language We keep making as we go. Half a sentence from your mouth— And I’m the only one who knows. Only you. Only me. Whole conversations In a word nobody needs. [BRIDGE — tender sung vocal, continuous bass groove] And when you can’t make anything funny, When the day has been too much, I can put away the punchline. I can ask you what you want. We have twenty names for kissing, Seven ways to say “come here.” But I say “I love you” plainly When you really need to hear. [FINAL DROP — explosive breakbeat fills] Say that— “I love you.” Say that— “I love you.” You know. I know. Still good To be told. [OUTRO — smiling female vocal, final bass hit] You say “apricot.” I have to sit down.
