ONLY MEANT FOR TWO

Verse 1
I’ll strum you a tune in the glow of the moon,
Sing a melody made for a heart like you.
Soft-spoken stories that dance through the air,
Taking you places like we haven’t a care.
We’ll daydream in colors that don’t have a name,
Like jasmine and sunsets and warm summer rain.
Wrap me in you, let the stars realign,
Just one little touch and the world feels divine.

Chorus
I’ll make you believe, write our names in the sand,
You’re my island delight, and I’m your barefoot man.
I’ll chase off the ghosts that once haunted your past,
This kiss says I’m in it—yeah, we’re built to last.

Verse 2
I’ll hum you a breeze like a secret refrain,
One you feel in your chest when you’re dancing in rain.
Whispers that heal, like a sweet lullaby,
Hope in each note, and the fear says goodbye.
So drift off to sleep, let the dreams come to play,
I’ll be there in each one, come night or come day.

Chorus
I’ll make you believe, write our names in the sand,
You’re my island delight, and I’m your barefoot man.
I’ll chase off the ghosts that once haunted your past,
This kiss says I’m in it—yeah, we’re built to last.

Bridge
If the tide pulls us far from the shore,
We’ll just build our loveboat and paddle some more.
In your smile, I see where the music begins,
With each note I play, girl, you pull me right in.

Verse 3
Take my hand, we’ll drift on this tune,
Float where the stars write the notes of the moon.
Every word, a promise, no need to pretend,
This song that I’m singing has no final end.

Final Chorus
I’ll make you believe, write our names in the sand,
You’re my island delight, and I’m your barefoot man.
I’ll chase off the ghosts that once haunted your past,
This kiss says I’m in it—yeah, we’re built to last.

Outro
I’ll strum you a tune… that’s what I do…
I’ll write you a song… only meant for two…
Just me and you…
Only meant for two…
