Lyrics

Intro

(mm, ma-ma) oh-oh, oh-oh

Soft like a porch light, slow like a song (ma)

I keep your voice inside where I belong

Verse

You braided mornings into my small palms

Tied my shoelaces to courage, to calm

Left coffee rings like signatures on the day

Taught me how to stand when words ran away

Your laughter folded into the shape of home

A beacon I carry when I'm walking alone

Ma-ma, ma-ma, (ma) you named the world for me

Gave me directions when I couldn't see

Pre-chorus

I would cross any sky, any broken street

Patch together stars just to feel your heartbeat (yeah)

Every version of me keeps turning your name

I swear it loud — it will never change

Chorus

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (I do)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (I do)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no (oh-oh)

Verse

Remember the first time you let me drive the car

We rode slow, singing lines off the radio bar

You held the map even when the road bent wide

Said, "Fear makes good company, but you decide" (uh-huh)

You stitched my doubts into something fierce and kind

Left your warmth in the pockets of my mind

Ma-ma, ma-ma, (ma-ma) your name is my light

A lighthouse for the wrong turns and the midnight fights

Bridge

Let the worlds fold in on themselves, let them shift and stray

I'll plant a flag of your laugh on every single day (yeah)

If the stars rearrange their letters and the sky forgets to stay

I'll rewrite constellations just to spell your name (ma, ma)

Chorus

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (I do)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (I do)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no (oh-oh)

Chorus

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (I do, I do)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no (never, never)

I love you more than everything else in this multiverse (ma-ma, ma)

No one will ever take my love away, no, no (oh-oh)

Outro

(mm, ma-ma) yeah, uh-huh
