They don't write it in the footnotes Don't spell it in the fade-out Your name's in capital letters Before the intro ends No secret handshake in the echo No password in the bridge If they mean it It's the first line they sing When love is real The chorus is for you No small print, no asterisk Just your name on the mic They don't love in lowercase They write your name in bold When love is real The chorus is for you I used to stay up late at night Reading silence like a sign Counting every little pause As if the answer hid inside I kept digging through the layers For proof I couldn't find And waited for a signal Chasing ghost codes in the dark When love is real The chorus is for you No small print, no asterisk Just your name on the mic They don't love in lowercase They write your name in bold When love is real The chorus is for you Love isn't a night shift job Love isn't a code to crack Love doesn't keep you guessing Love doesn't leave you in the dark I used to listen for Morse code Count the silence, call it hope But if I have to search for love Maybe that isn't love The ones who really love you Lead with your name When love is real The chorus is for you No small print, no asterisk Just your name on the mic No more digging through the layers No more flashlight love When love is real The chorus is for you When love is real The chorus is for you [End] ©Quantum Soul 2026 All rights reserved
