The Glitch in My Heart

I searched the whole world, every corner, every street
Swiped through a thousand faces just to find the one that's sweet
My mother said "be patient" my therapist said "grow"
Then you liked my dumb comment and, baby, I just know

You're not perfect, no, you snore like a freight train
You steal the blankets, you complain about the rain
But when you laugh at my jokes that nobody else gets
I forget every heartbreak, every one of my regrets

You're the glitch in my heart, the bug I won't fix
The one weird ingredient in my whole life's mix
Every love song ever written, every poet, every bard
Wrote it all for someone, turns out, it was hard
'Til I found you standing there, ordinary and true
Now the whole world's a love song, and it's singing about you

You eat my leftover fries without ever asking
You caught me singing in the shower, didn't stop me, just kept laughing
I'm no prince on a white horse, I'm a guy who forgets the time
But you make Tuesday feel like Paris, and bad days feel like rhyme

You're not perfect, you say "fine" when you mean the opposite
You reorganize my closet and call it a "gift"

But when your hand finds mine in a crowded, noisy place
The whole room disappears, there's just your face

You're the glitch in my heart, the bug I won't fix
The one weird ingredient in my whole life's mix
Every love song ever written, every poet, every bard
Wrote it all for someone, turns out, it was hard
'Til I found you standing there, ordinary and true
Now the whole world's a love song, and it's singing about you

They say love's a mystery, some ancient, cosmic art
I say it's just you, laughing, with ketchup on your heart
No poem, no equation, no algorithm's ever known
The way you make a house, any house, feel like home
So here's to imperfect, here's to messy, here's to real
Here's to falling slow and fast and however love should feel

You're the glitch in my heart, the bug I'll never fix
The best mistake, the sweetest of all tricks
Every love song ever written, every poet, every bard
They were all just practicing, writing the easy part
This is the hard part, this is the true, true view
Every love song from now on will just be about you

So yeah, you steal my hoodies, you steal my fries, you're always, always late
But I'd pick you in every language, every accent, every state
Translate this however you want, the meaning stays the same
It's you. It's always been you
That's the whole refrain.
