Clock Out For Your Love

[Verse 1]
Victor watching that wall clock tick
Name tag hanging, hands smell like chips
Phone face down but my mind on you
Laughing in the break room out of the blue
Amy wiping down table four
Still got your hoodie on from before
We text “I’m tired” but we both know truth
I’m missing you, you’re missing me too
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little order just slowing time
Keep on seeing your face in my mind
Baby, when they turn off these bright white lights
You’re mine, you’re mine
[Chorus]
I can’t wait to clock out for your love
Drop this apron, pull you up
You been missing me while I miss you
We the happiest when it’s us two (yeah)
Pulling in the driveway, doors swing wide
You in my arms, world outside
Eight hours dreaming just to wake up
So I can clock out, clock out for your love (for your love)
[Verse 2]
Victor counting that last tip jar
Already picturing you in my car
Drive-thru closed and the floor all clean
But my favorite part ain’t on this scene
Amy checking that schedule sheet
Praying we got the same off-week
‘Cause every time our days line up
It’s like winning, we can’t get enough
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little minute moving too slow
I’m at work but my heart with you though
Soon as they say “you all done tonight”
I fly, I fly
[Chorus]
I can’t wait to clock out for your love
Drop this apron, pull you up
You been missing me while I miss you
We the happiest when it’s us two (oh yeah)
Pulling in the driveway, doors swing wide
You in my arms, world outside
Eight hours dreaming just to wake up
So I can clock out, clock out for your love
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to keys and soft snaps]
You missing me, I’m missing you (missing you)
Same song, different side of the room
Soon as that last “goodnight” is through
I’m racing just to get to you (hey)
Clock hits nine, we both exhale
Throw in the towel, follow the trail
From the parking lot to your front door
That’s the moment we were working for
[Chorus]
I can’t wait to clock out for your love
Drop this apron, pull you up
You been missing me while I miss you
We the happiest when it’s us two
Pulling in the driveway, doors swing wide
You in my arms, world outside
All day dreaming just to wake up
So I can clock out, clock out for your love (yeah)
So I can clock out, clock out for your love

Midtempo R&B duet in the Chris Brown x Ella Mai lane: bouncy drums, warm Rhodes keys, silky male vocals trading lines with smooth female vocals. Verses stay intimate and conversational with tight harmonies on key phrases; pre-chorus lifts with stacked backgrounds and filtered pads; chorus hits wide with bright top-line, subtle guitar flicks, and a deep, soft bass. Bridge strips to keys and vocal riffs before a final chorus lift.
