She says, you say you're going out 
but you don't say where...
He says, I do it every night, since when do you care?
Something's gone very wrong in this love affair...

He says, I don't have time for this 
We've been through this before
He wonders if she'll ask him to stay 
She doesn't say a word
He stares right through her
He walks out and slams the door

[Chorus]
It can't be love when you're talking at me 
Your words cut deep
and leave me undone 
It can't be love that's causing the heartache
and making our hearts break 
it's clear....

If we're not in love 
Can I ask, what are we even doing here?
 
He said, your eyes used to light up 
when I came through the door 
now when I come home, 
you don't say a word, you just stare
at the floor 
Your silence is screaming 
You don't love me anymore


She said, You said, 
You said,  I was all you'd ever
need- 
and made that promise to me 
when you got down on one knee
I hear whispers all around 
that when you go out on the town
It's plain to see
That you need more...


ohhh it can't be love
When you're talking at me 
Your words cut deep
and leave me undone 
It can't be love
that's causing the heartache
and making our hearts break 
It's clear 

If we're not in love 
damn it, what are we even doing here? 
What are we doing here ???
 
it can't be love
no no no no no , it can't be love
Where were all the signs we missed ?
that it's all come down to this ?
 
 Words unspoken
 Promises broken ...
This can't be love....
This can't be love

This can't be 
Can't be 
Can't be 
Can't be love
It can't be...

HE SAID/SHE SAID

This piece masterfully blends ambient textures, trance rhythms, and country soul into a truly unique sonic experience. 

The ambient layers create a dreamlike atmosphere, setting the stage for introspection and emotional depth. 

The trance elements add a sense of movement and uplift, symbolizing the journey through hardship toward hope. Meanwhile, the subtle country influences ground the song with warmth and sincerity, reinforcing its message of love, unity, and resilience.

The spoken word section, which is borrowed from MLK's famous speech, in the middle stands out as a powerful emotional anchor. It bridges the personal and the universal, echoing the spirit of iconic speeches while reimagining them through the lens of love. It’s a bold, poetic reminder that no matter the genre, music remains one of our most powerful tools for connection and change.
