Lyric

We met by the corner store

Orange on your sleeve

You said “you good?”

I said “yeah, kinda”

Then we laughed too long

While the bus pulled past

Your text came in

Right when I got home

Three dots, then nothing

Still left my screen on

I kept your name

In the same old spot

Now the night feels slow

When you go quiet

My thumb on the glass

Like I might still find it

A little more of you

A little less of me

Text me back, text me back

Don’t let it fade like that

We were bright for a minute

Now it’s soft in my hands

Text me back, text me back

Say my name like you meant that

We were young in the summer

And I still feel that

We walked the river path

Shoes getting dust on them

Your laugh in my ear

Then the crowd took you

We stayed half-close

Like that was enough

I saw you last week

Across the crosswalk light

You looked through me

Then you smiled too quick

Now I replay

That one small look

And I don’t wanna chase

Just wanna feel close

Even if it’s brief

I keep what you wrote

A little more of you

A little less of me

Text me back, text me back

Don’t let it fade like that

We were bright for a minute

Now it’s soft in my hands

Text me back, text me back

Say my name like you meant that

We were young in the summer

And I still feel that

Maybe this is all

Just a passing thing

Still your voice stays

Like a song I know

If you come around

I’ll act cool again

But my heart says

What my mouth won’t say

Text me back, text me back

Don’t let it fade like that

We were bright for a minute

Now it’s soft in my hands

Text me back, text me back

Say my name like you meant that

We were young in the summer

And I still feel that
