We Text

My phone lights up, a familiar glow
Another message, making my heart go
A little faster, a silent little beat
Bittersweet, you're thinking of me
Wish you were here, a simple phrase, vivid scene
The words pop on the screen (beside me)
Just like a waking
It's more than letters, or how things might seem

It’s a silent melody, a conversation
That only the two of us can hear
No spoken words, just the moonlight on my face
As I try to find the perfect emoji to fill the space

We text, through hours of the day
Sending feelings that we just can't say
Aloud, or face to face, it's understood
Digital connection, oh so good
We text, right here beside me, just you and me
You tell me all the ways you wanna be
Every buzz, every little ping
Is all the magic that our secret brings

(Uh-uh) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) text
(Ooh-uh-uh yeah)
(Ye-yeah) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) (oh) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) (oh) we text

(Make me mine)
My thumbs are flying, a rhythm all their own
Sharing secrets we could never have known
Without these windows, open wide and bright
Conversations stretching through the night
You paint a picture, with words so clear and bold
Of stories yet to live, and truths untold
The anticipation, a sweet and steady hum

Yeah, we text, through hours of the day
Sending feelings that we just can't say
Aloud, or face to face, it's understood
Digital connection, oh so good
You tell me all the ways you wanna be
Right here beside me, just you and me
And every buzz, every little ping
Is all the magic that our secret brings

(Uh-uh) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) text
(Ooh-uh-uh yeah)
(Ye-yeah) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) (oh) we text
(Uh-uh yeah) (oh) we text

And every buzz, every little ping
Is all the magic that our secret brings
We fill the distance with a thousand lines
Reading between them, perfect, clear designs
A fantasy woven, a bond that grows so strong
Where we both feel like we truly belong
No wasted moments, no unspoken thought
Every desire, every perfectly caught

Yeah, we text, through hours of the day
Sending feelings that we just can't say
Aloud, or face to face, it's understood
Digital connection, oh so good
