Maybe it's ko-i...? I'd be lying if I were to say I was certain.
I'm not sure how to phrase my question properly... But can someone please explain this to me? Or am I listening to it wrong afterall?

You ain't listenin' to it wrong, dude. (Dang, is my English a-changing!?)
It's
来い , the imperative form of the verb
来る（くる） = to come.
And about that form of love, that is
恋. It looks love-related, doesn't it?
