Long Way to South Florida

V5.5

[Intro – Smoove] (Male vocals — soft, emotional, reflective) Yeah... Sometimes you gotta sit with your thoughts... Sometimes you gotta look back... To understand what you found... [Verse 1 – Smoove] (Male voice) I been watchin' water movin' Under this bridge Thinkin' 'bout the moments And the things we never said I been replayin' conversations Inside my head Every word you gave me Still echoin' instead I been sittin' with my thoughts While the city lights fade Tryna understand the feelings That I never really say I been movin' through this life With a smile on my face But you the one person That can make my heart change [Pre-Chorus – Smoove] (Building emotion) You said you comin' through I'm just vibin', coolin', waitin' on you Ain't lookin' for a moment I'm lookin' for something true 'Cause everybody comes around When the lights shine bright But I need somebody with me When it's quiet at night [Chorus – Smoove & Keisha] (Male & female harmony) Smoove: I been waiting for something real... Something my heart can feel... Keisha: I don't need perfect love... I just need someone who understands... Both: When the world gets heavy And the nights get cold We'll hold on tighter Never let go Meet me where the water keeps moving... Under this bridge... Where we found something real... [Verse 2 – Smoove] (Smooth male voice) See... The way you move got me lost in a feeling Something 'bout your energy got my walls revealing I been through storms I don't trust too easy But you got a way of making broken feel easy Girl, I like that... The way you bring me back... When the world gets heavy You remind me to relax Yeah, I like that... Got me thinking 'bout the future Not just where we at About the memories we'll make And the moments we can't get back I don't need perfect I just need real Someone who understands Exactly how I feel [Verse 3 – Keisha Monroe] (Female vocals — confident, seductive, soulful) I want you, boy Quit actin' shy, come claim it Pretty lil' poison But my love stay dangerous I'll be your Elvira Hancock Fly and unbothered Bonnie to your hustle While we stackin' these dollars And you won't be the help You built like a boss You know what you want You know what it cost Pull up in that Porsche Let the whole city see But the only thing that matters Is you standing next to me [Bridge – Keisha Monroe] (Emotional female lead) You got that grown-man vibe Not the regular type The kind of energy That makes everything feel right When the Miami evening lights Hit the ocean blue Everything feels different When I'm riding with you I don't need diamonds Just to know that you shine I don't need a crowd When I know you're mine Through the highs and lows Through the wrong and right I just want your hand When I'm walking through life [Female Breakdown – Keisha Monroe] Boy, when you hold me like that... Talk smooth like that... I forget every reason I was scared of love back You ain't regular... Nah, you built different for real Got me opening my heart And showing how I feel [Verse 4 – Smoove] (Male voice — emotional return) I been watchin' water movin' Under this bridge Thinkin' 'bout the moments And the things we never said I been smokin', looking at the stars Trying to clear my head Wondering how I found you When I thought love was dead You said you comin' through I'm just vibin', coolin', waiting on you Not just for tonight... I'm waiting on something true [Duet Hook – Keisha & Smoove] Keisha: See... When you movin' like that Got me smiling right back You don't gotta promise me the world Just show me where you at Smoove: Yeah, I like that... Keisha: The way you love like that... Both: Smoove... [Verse 5 – Smoove] (Cinematic R&B finale) Porsche top back City in the rearview But all these views mean nothing If I ain't beside you I done chased dreams I done chased gold But peace of mind Is worth more than what I hold Top floor looking down At the lights below Thinking 'bout the places That we still gotta go You laughing beside me And for a second I know This the type of feeling Money can't control I've had nights Where I felt alone Had to find my strength When nobody was home Had to build myself From the pieces I broke Had to learn love ain't just words That you spoke But you came around With a different vibe Made me wanna open up And stop hiding mine Now every song I write Got a piece of you Every melody reminds me What love can do [Outro Bridge – Smoove] Sunrise creeping Through the window slow Coffee on the table While the whole world froze No cameras No fame No need to pretend Just me and you... Hoping this never ends Girl... You got me thinking... [Final Chorus – Smoove & Keisha] Smoove: I been watchin' water movin' Under this bridge Thinkin' 'bout the promises And the things that we missed I been searching for a reason To believe again Then you walked into my life Like a brand new beginning Both: You said you comin'
