Intro
Oh Mikey, you're my key to happiness of all,
Let me tell you something that you needed to know,

Verse

I was twenty, or something, booth light, talking past midnight,
Birmingham in your voice, low over the noise,
The restaurant faded, the world turned down,
It was just us, gone, lost in that sound,
You said "let's walk" — and the tide pulled us on,
And I followed your shadow till the night was gone.

Chorus
'Cause your name beats right under my skin,
One look from you and the high begins,
The world feels heavy, but you make it light,
You burn brighter than the city at night,
Your laugh lives in me, low and true,
Every street I walk still leads to you.

*[Verse 2]*
Cigarette low, your smoke on my face,
Biting my lip just to hold your pace,
That little table — our quiet launch,
Two strangers leaning over too much,
Now I'm in orbit, and I can't come down,
Spinning slow around your sound.

*[Pre-Chorus]*
Voices close, my heart beats fast,
Everything is quiet, only us laughing loud,
One glance says enough, we both know it all,
Hands move slow, time behaves,
No rush, no waiting, just us in a haze,
The night held its breath to let us stay.

*[Chorus 2]*
We came with no plans, but stayed for so long,
One more moment — stay with me, please,
The streets weren't warm, the lights burning low,
No time to decide, and we walked all along,
No map, no ending, just sea and skin,
From that first hello, where we begin.

Bridge
From Birmingham whispers to bare feet in sand,
Salt on our ankles, your hand in my hand,
Every second with you, I want again and again,
From that crowded table to the beat in my chest,
In all the chaos, you're my quiet rest,
You're the calm I never knew how to find.

Outro
Oh Mikey, you're my key to happiness of all,
Oh Mikey, you're my key to happiness of all,
When we all fall asleep, where do we go?
Tell me — where do we go?
When the lights go out and the world moves slow?
At one table — just you and me,
That's where we’ll always be.
Mikey, you're my key to happiness
