[triangle ears tune me in] Verse 1 You spot me first and my mouth forgets adulthood. Your grin tightens, then breaks; the day opens by itself. I rush like another dog because I am, with you, that simple. I go to ground in yoga pose—hands and shoulders touching earth, face to you—my dear Mei-Mei, why is my butt so high in the air? I don’t ask; I just laugh—what else can I do when you smile so?

[single strum widen breath hold] Verse 2 Your human waves late like a train after the station; you were here first. [guitars palm mute first half then widen] Triangle-ear radio scans and locks to me; you read my micro-joy and sprint. I laugh the laugh I forgot I owned; the park remembers summer. [bell tiny downbeat once] White-bright Mei-Mei cuts the day open like chalk on green. [acoustic double left right no chorus fx] Pre-Chorus 2 Pogo-kiss landing light; you nudge my sleeve and everything forgives me.
