Texting from the Heart (Verse 1) I was sittin' on my porch, sun settin' low, Got a message on my phone, didn’t know where to go, “Hey, you don’t know me, but I like you,” it read, My heart raced for a moment, then I shook my head. (Chorus) But I need my freedom, not a heart to mend, Sometimes love can wait, we're better as friends, Late-night talks and laughter, under starry skies, You’re the voice of reason, in a world of goodbyes. (Verse 2) We started talkin’ daily, like sweet summertime, You’d send me silly memes, I’d laugh every time, Shared our favorite songs, I with my country tunes, You’d play your old guitar, underneath the moons. (Chorus) But I need my freedom, not a heart to mend, Sometimes love can wait, we're better as friends, Late-night talks and laughter, under starry skies, You’re the voice of reason, in a world of goodbyes. (Verse 3) You wanted girl advice, for that girl in your class, We’d sit with coffee cups, as the hours would pass, I’d tell you just be patient, let your heart lead the way, You’d smile and nod, like you’d found what to say. (Bridge) But as seasons changed, I could feel the shift, Our friendship blossomed, like the sweetest gift, You’d catch me when I’d stumble, never let me fall, In this precious bond, I found it all. (Chorus) But I need my freedom, not a heart to mend, Sometimes love can wait, we're better as friends, Late-night talks and laughter, under starry skies, You’re the voice of reason, in a world of goodbyes. (Outro) So here’s to the texts, that started it all, From a stranger to a friend, you’ve been my support call, In a world so crazy, you’re my solid ground, With your heart in my pocket, I know I’m safe and sound.
