Ask Me to HOCO Now

Intro

Hey — hey — (hey) — mm-hmm, yeah

Light a smile, flip my mind, stop the clock — whoa

Verse

He’s hot in a hoodie, funny with the timing

Cool like he borrowed confidence from a movie scene

Smart with the jokes that somehow keep me smiling

One day he’s close, next day he’s on my screen

He says something clever, I laugh way too loud (ha)

Then he waves like we’re strangers in a crowd (hey)

I’m reading signals like a secret code

But the deadline’s showing up in bold

Pre-chorus

We’ve got seven sunsets, seven chances left

I want one night where I remember us — not guess

Make it simple, make it sweet, make it now

No more maybe, no more how

Chorus

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (ask me)

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (say it)

Ask me to HOCO now, don’t make me wait, don’t make me wonder

Ask me to HOCO now — yeah, yeah, ask me to HOCO now

Verse

We can pick a song and learn the chorus wrong

Stand on our toes, laugh ‘til we’re sore

I’ll wear that dress that makes you look twice

You’ll fix your tie like you mean more

I want to know if your smile saves space for me

If your hand finds mine when the lights go dim (come on)

If you like me enough to cut through the maybe

If you’ll be the answer, if you’ll say my name

Pre-chorus

No pressure, just pictures and one slow dance

A memory we can steal in a single chance

Say it easy, say it loud, say it now

Turn “maybe” into “how” — show me how

Chorus

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (ask me)

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (say it)

Ask me to HOCO now, don’t make me wait, don’t make me wonder

Ask me to HOCO now — yeah, yeah, ask me to HOCO now

Bridge

Hey — it’s okay if you’re nervous, it’s okay if you stumble

Just point at me and call my name, babe, watch me crumble

Make it simple: text, say it in the hallway, do it with a grin

I’ll meet you on the bleachers — let the memory begin (let it begin)

Chorus

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (ask me)

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (say it)

Ask me to HOCO now, don’t make me wait, don’t make me wonder

Ask me to HOCO now — yeah, yeah, ask me to HOCO now

Chorus

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (ask me)

Ask me to HOCO now, ask me to HOCO now (say it)

Ask me to HOCO now, don’t make me wait, don’t make me wonder

Ask me to HOCO now — yeah, yeah, ask me to HOCO now
