[Verse 1]
Beast of a man
leaned on the bar like a wall
I cut through the room
heels first, smile sharp, standing tall
“Can I get you something?”
He just nods, eyes like ice
Says, “Bourbon. Straight. On the rocks.”
then drifts back into his quiet night

[Chorus]
I love a man of mystery
then I love the next one more
I’m chasing that first question
walking right past every door
I crave the spark, not the ending
I crave the pulse, not the proof
I love the chase
not the reward, not the truth

[Verse 2]
Three days later
same dim lights, same old song
He’s there in my corner
like he’s been waiting all along
He says, “Hi, I’m—”
offers me something strong
I sip, I smirk, then stand
let the silence stretch too long

[Chorus]
I love a man of mystery
then I love the next one more
I’m chasing that first question
walking right past every door
I crave the spark, not the ending
I crave the pulse, not the proof
I love the chase
not the reward, not the truth

[Bridge]
Outside in the chill
another shadow, another face
Names don’t matter
just the heartbeat of the chase (oh)
I’m not lost, I’m not broken
I’m just wired for the spark
for the almost, for the maybe
for the stranger in the dark

[Chorus]
I love a man of mystery
then I love the next one more
I’m chasing that first question
walking right past every door
I crave the spark, not the ending
I crave the pulse, not the proof
I love the chase
not the reward, not the truth
