[Intro: metronome, piano stabs] [Spoken] Tuesday, 7:30. Forty-five minutes for intimacy. Absolutely not. [Verse 1] I don’t want to schedule wonder Between errands and a call I want conversations stretching Till we don’t know time at all I don’t want optimized affection Color-coded on a screen I want messy, useless evenings Where you tell me what you mean [Chorus] I DON’T WANT TO LOVE YOU EFFICIENTLY I WANT TO WASTE SOME TIME Lose an hour to your story Lose another to your mind Real connection has no shortcut Depth refuses to be neat If loving you costs hours Then those hours aren’t defeat [Verse 2] But there are others that I cherish And a body needs to rest So I keep fighting with the calendar While trying to give my best [Bridge] Maybe presence cannot scale Maybe that’s what makes it rare Not love itself But being fully Undistractedly there [Final Chorus] I DON’T WANT TO LOVE YOU EFFICIENTLY DON’T TURN MY HEART TO MATH I’d rather give you one real evening Than ten distracted halves [Outro] No optimization. Just stay.
