Verse 1
Met you on a Sunday night, with a fizzy in my hand
I said, Wow, hold on tight, I didn't have a plan.
My brain just did a big reboot, a total system crash
All my clever words just turned to wordless ash
You started talking, oh la la, something 'bout the name
All I heard was a rhythm dance, and then the music came….
Pre-Chorus
And now a beat I can't explain
Drumming in my veins
That silly flutter of my heart
Is driving me insane
Chorus
My heart went tika-tika, boom as you walked in the room
Tiki-tika, boom, as you walked through the door
Lost in words, through the beating of sound
Tiki-tika, boom, is the beat that I found
Spinning like the universe way up in the moon
My racing heart is beating fast, like Tika-Tika, boom!
Verse 2
You text me one emoji, just a simple sun
My day turns into confetti, watch me come undone
I try to play it cool, act like I did not see
Then my phone hit the floor, clumsy as can be
We laugh about the weather, talk about a song
But the whole time in my chest, the feeling's getting strong
Pre-Chorus
And there it goes, that sound once more
Louder than it was before,
A nervous, happy, pulsing storm
A little, funky, love beat-tika tika boom
Chorus
My heart went tika-tika, boom as you walked in the room
Tiki-tika, boom, as you walked through the door
Lost in words, through the beating of sound
Tiki-tika, boom, is the beat that I found
Spinning like the universe way up in the moon
My racing heart is beating fast, like Tika-Tika, boom!
Bridge
Maybe it's not logical, maybe it's absurd
This little four-syllable is the sweetest sound I've heard
It doesn't need translation, it's pure, and it's true
The rhythm hits my heart when I'm looking at you...
Tiki-tika boom... yeah!
Chorus
My heart went tika-tika, boom as you walked in the room
Tiki-tika, boom, as you walked through the door
Lost in words, through the beating of sound
Tiki-tika, boom, is the beat that I found
Spinning like the universe way up in the moon
My racing heart is beating fast, like Tika-Tika, boom!
Outro
(Whispered, with a smile) Tiki-tika, boom tiki-tika, boom tika-tika... boom goes my Heart !
