Can I Keep This Ninja

Song by Suno and image by Gemini. This is a hobby and not a career, so lets just enjoy it. [Verse 1] There’s a stranger on my rooftop All in black On silent toes Left his shadow in my hallway And three shuriken by my shoes He’s pretending that he’s hiding But I see him by the fern Sipping tea I left on purpose Waiting for my turn [Chorus] A ninja followed me home Can I keep it? I’ll feed it ramen and rice Let it sleep where my heart is I’ll promise not to tell a soul Where it’s hiding in my room A ninja followed me home I hope it stays till noon (oh) [Verse 2] He keeps rearranging pillows Into shapes I can’t decode Folds my laundry into swans Leaves a map in every fold When I trip over my shoelace He appears before I fall Then he vanishes at daybreak But his sandals stay in the hall [Chorus] A ninja followed me home Can I keep it? I’ll learn the quietest steps Just to walk where its heart is I’ll water all the little plants While it guards me from the gloom A ninja followed me home I hope it makes this home too (mm) [Bridge] I signed a pact in sticky notes “Secret’s safe Just steal my stress” He wrote back in tiny letters “Rule one: always get some rest” So if you see my curtains flutter And you hear a gentle thud It’s just my shy Elusive crush Tracking footprints in the rug [Chorus] A ninja followed me home Can I keep it? I’ll trade my worries for stars Let it live where my heart is If loving something this unseen Is a quiet kind of truth Then ninja If you’re listening I wanna be your home too
