The Best Word
Style: Folk duet

[Verse 1]
I know a thousand words by heart
words for weather, words for art
but none of them can hold a room
the way yours does right from the start

[Pre-chorus]
I could talk for hours and say nothing true
then I stop and just say you
and everything gets clearer

[Chorus]
Lottie, that's the best word said
every language, every book I've read
nothing rhymes with how you make me feel
but Lottie comes the closest instead

[Verse 2]
Other names just come and go
fill a space and empty slow
yours stays lit up on my tongue
longer than I'd ever know

[Chorus]
Lottie, that's the best word said
every language, every book I've read
nothing rhymes with how you make me feel
but Lottie comes the closest instead

[Bridge]
Say it plain or say it soft
it lifts me up like nothing else has
one small word, and I'm undone
simple as that, sure as that

[Chorus]
Lottie, that's the best word said
every language, every book I've read
nothing rhymes with how you make me feel
but Lottie comes the closest instead

[Outro]
I'll keep learning words till I run dry
but yours was always the reason why
