Waveendz, Guff Lavander, and Lorlyn Sage Deliver Warm Late-Night R&B Comfort on “iCare”
Music Collective Waveendz steps into a softer register with “iCare,” a late-night R&B single that pairs Producer and Singer-Songwriter Guff Lavander and vocalist Lorlyn Sage in a mood built on warmth rather than spectacle. The record moves with quiet confidence, letting velvet chords, hypnotic bass lines, and laidback percussion do the heavy lifting while the vocals stay close to the listener’s ear. That restraint is exactly what gives the song its pull. Instead of chasing a dramatic peak, “iCare” settles into a steady emotional pocket, creating the feeling of a conversation that matters more because it is spoken gently. Guff brings a sweet rasp to the opening verses, delivering reassurance with a lived-in tone that feels natural rather than overly polished, while Lorlyn Sage adds a poignant calm that broadens the song’s emotional reach. Together, they make vulnerability sound composed, intimate, and deeply human.
What gives “iCare” its staying power is the clarity of its message. Built around the refrain, “I just want you to know that I care about you,” the single turns simple language into something quietly powerful. There is no grand poetic disguise here, and that works in the song’s favor. Guff’s writing leans into acceptance, reminding a loved one that they do not need to perform, hide pain, or force strength to deserve affection, while Lorlyn’s verse offers the kind of emotional shelter that feels especially resonant in a late-night setting. The track understands that comfort does not always arrive through big declarations; sometimes it arrives through patience, presence, and a voice that refuses to look away. With “iCare,” Waveendz delivers an R&B release that feels sincere, polished, and emotionally available without ever losing its cool.
LYRICS
[Intro]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
You don’t know that I care…
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
yeah… yeah…
[Chorus]
I just— I just—
I just want you to know…
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
(“I mean it… / don’t doubt it… / yeah yeah…”)
[Drop]
I care, ca-care, ca-care, ca-care
about you, ’bout you-’bout you-’bout you
I see you, see you—see you—see you
[Verse 1 - Guff Lavander]
You don’t need to act a certain way
To grab my attention
I see you
I see you
You don’t need to act a different way
To meet my standard
I see you
I see you
Sometimes I act like I don’t care, but trust me
I know your pain and I’ll be here with you
You don’t have to run outside to check the weather
I know how it is when it gets cold
How it is when it gets cold
[Pre-Chorus – Guff x Lorlyn]
And if it gets heavy, you can lean on me
No performance, no pride, just honestly
You don’t gotta be “okay” for my love to stay
I’m right here—no distance, no delay
[Chorus]
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
[Verse 2 – Lorlyn Sage]
You don’t gotta hide your tears behind your smile
You don’t gotta fix it all in a little while
I know the night get loud in your head sometimes
And silence can feel like a heavy design
So talk to me slow, I’m listening for real
No judgment, no pressure—just room to heal
If the world feels sharp and your chest feels tight
I’ll stay with you through it, I’ll hold that night
And when you feel lost like you’re far from home
I’ll be the reminder: you’re not alone
[Bridge]
(Ooh-ooh)
Let it out, let it fall, I won’t turn away
(Ooh-ooh)
Even on your worst days, I’m gonna stay
(Ooh-ooh)
If your love feels bruised, if your hope feels thin
Just breathe—let me in… let me in…
[Final Chorus]
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
I just want you to know that I care
About you (about you)
About you (about you)
[Outro]
I care ca-care… ca-care… (fade)
(Ooh-ooh)
About you… about you…
