Lyrics
[Verse 1] You came in with rain on your sleeves And two paper cups in your hands Said, “I found a corner for us” By the fruit stand down on the block You laughed at the price of the mangoes Then bought three like it was a joke I kept one in my bag all night Like a small sun under my coat [Pre-Chorus] And I felt that pull again That quiet little yes Your voice cut through the crowd Like a light on my chest I was trying to play it cool You made it hard to pretend Now every step back home Feels like I’m walking on a string [Chorus] Pocket full of mangoes You and me, we glow Pocket full of mangoes Sweet enough to know If the world gets wild We can take it slow Pocket full of mangoes Stay with me, stay close [Verse 2] Next morning, your text was simple “Meet me where the bus turns left” I wore the shirt you liked last week Even though it still smelled like soap We split one fruit with a plastic knife On the curb by the corner shop You drew a grin with the juice on my wrist Said, “That’s the kind of mess I want” [Pre-Chorus] And I felt that pull again That quiet little yes Your name in my mouth Like a song I’d almost said I was trying to keep my pace You kept changing the wind Now every road I take Leads me right back to your hand [Chorus] Pocket full of mangoes You and me, we glow Pocket full of mangoes Sweet enough to know If the world gets wild We can take it slow Pocket full of mangoes Stay with me, stay close [Bridge] [Brushed drums and Rhodes] Hold my hand in the heat Let the afternoon bend We don’t need a reason We just need this again If the night goes dark I know where to go One sweet bite at a time You’re the way I’m home [Final Chorus] Pocket full of mangoes You and me, we glow Pocket full of mangoes Sweet enough to know If the world gets wild We can take it slow Pocket full of mangoes Stay with me, stay close Pocket full of mangoes I’m never letting go Pocket full of mangoes This is how we grow
