Midnight chats

Verse 1 Midnight glowing on my screen Your name doing things to me Every word just pulls me closer But the distance won’t let me breathe You say “hey” like it’s nothing new Like you don’t know what it does We joke like we’re just passing time But we both feel the buzz Pre-Chorus Your voice slips under my skin Like trouble dressed as a friend I play it cool, but every line Makes me want you again Chorus I wish I could reach through my phone to you Feel that slow fire we don’t let loose Stuck in a place where the rules say no But you’re the yes that I don’t show I want you close but I hold my truth You’re the dream I never choose I wish I could reach through my phone to you But wanting you is all I’m allowed to do Verse 2 Your laugh tastes like temptation Wrapped in something soft and sweet We talk like nothing’s happening But my heart don’t move that neat Your “goodnight” hits like a secret Slipping into my bones I turn the lights low just to feel you Like you’re here, not alone Pre-Chorus 2 We dance around what we won’t say Like it’s safer in between But every pause in your reply Feels louder than a scream Chorus I wish I could reach through my phone to you Touch that moment we never do Caught in a game of almost mine Living between the dots and lines I want you near but I stay in control You’re the spark I don’t let go I wish I could reach through my phone to you But wanting you is all I’m allowed to do Bridge (slow, whispered) If this was another life I’d be reckless, I’d be brave But right now we just pretend We don’t feel this wave So we breathe in the maybe We live in the almost You’re my favorite danger That I’ll never hold close
