Lyrics
The B-2 pencil on the logbook page
Still got the pressure from my younger age.
Third watch, midnight-to-four, the engine hum,
I trace your latitude just with my thumb,
Feel the cold salt spray on the steel, no be lie.
[Chorus]
If I strike your bearing from the chart
E be like say I stop your heart?
Abi the ship go just dey fall apart?
Me, I no know where to start.
[Verse 2]
That call from Tema port, the line was thin,
You said "Bayo, where you even begin?"
And I laugh, but the satellite delay
Stole the sound before I fit to say
Anything, anything wey go land.
[Chorus]
If I strike your bearing from the chart
E be like say I stop your heart?
Abi the ship go just dey fall apart?
Me, I no know where to start.
[Bridge]
No mind me, na just the quiet night
Thinking things under this single cabin light.
No be serious something, just a thought.
[Outro]
(Reharmonized, distant)
...stop your heart?
...fall apart...
About Bayo Verse
Raised by the hum of the Apapa ports in Lagos, Bayo Verse's smooth afropop was forged during his five years as a navigator in the Nigerian Navy. His songs are logbook entries from long-distance love, mapping the space between military discipline and romantic vulnerability. He left the sea to make music, but the horizon line—and the feeling of waiting for landfall—is still in every note he sings.
