[Verse 1]
Breathy, low — two mugs, a coffee ring on the table,
Late-night maps of where we’ve been, the corners that were unstable.
Your laugh when the city sleeps, the quiet after our jokes,
I trace the scar above your brow, the way your whole face wakes.
[Pre-Chorus]
We can play the blame game, or we can change the frame,
It’s on us — to build the warmth, to call each other by name.
Swell here, breath rise, let the melody lean wide,
No hiding, no retreat, just truth we keep inside.
[Chorus 1]
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
Our love, our promise, brighter than the stars.
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
Together we're stronger, healing all our scars.
[Verse 2]
Soft falsetto — your jacket on my chair, the playlist on repeat,
The way you fold your hands around the coffee, how you stand on tired feet.
The argument we had last week, the silence after rain,
Two toothbrushes in one cup, and promises in plain.
[Pre-Chorus - Build]
It's on us, the joy we choreograph,
To catch each falling piece, to choose the bath from aftermath.
We hold the map, we read the lines, we steer when nights get long,
Swell again — lift me up into the next song.
[Chorus 2 - Response]
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
(You: I love you too) Ooh we’ll keep the light on in the dark.
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
(Tafadzwa: We both mend the nights we scar) We stitch the broken parts.
[Spoken / Duet Moment - Tafadzwa]
[Tafadzwa - spoken, warm]
"It’s on both of us — to hold the light when nights are long.
I’ll name the fear, you name the hope; we’ll hum the same song."
[Call & Response]
You: "Will you stay when storms arrive?"
Tafadzwa: "I’ll stay — and I’ll learn to hold the quiet with you."
You: "Will you meet me halfway, when my edges start to fray?"
Tafadzwa: "I will meet you with my hands, with mornings we reclaim."
[Bridge - Sparse, piano or guitar only]
Two voices, raw:
I’m scared sometimes I fold, I give the night its room,
But here with you I feel the sun, a promise in full bloom.
Tafadzwa: "I fear I fail you — but I won’t walk away."
You (whisper): "Then we forgive, we learn, we stay."
[Build-Up - Layering harmonies]
Feel the power, the love inside, small truths we don’t deny,
From whispered vows to gospel chords, we lift this love up high.
Hands joined, breath held, then let go — we swell into the light,
Two hearts practicing the art of making wrongs turn right.
[Final Chorus - Emotional Climax, Key Lift]
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
Our mornings we will own, mend the nights we scar.
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
Hand in hand, we’ll face it all — you and I, no halfway parts.
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
(Backing choir: ahhh) In our love we stand tall, we rise.
I love Tafadzwa, ooh I love Tafadzwa,
(Ad-libs & runs) One light, two hands — we keep it burning through the skies.
[Outro - Intimate, descending]
Breath out together: "It’s on us — to love, to guard, to grow."
Soft harmony echo: "I love Tafadzwa... ooh I love Tafadzwa."
