Lyrics
I sent you a message, been waiting all day,
Watching my phone like a hawk, don’t know what to say.
Every beep, every buzz, my heart skips a beat,
In this digital age, it’s the sweetest defeat.
Is it something I said, or maybe the tone?
Caught in this web, I’m feeling alone.
Refresh my screen, still nothing new,
In this silence, all I think about is you.
(Why don’t you text me back?)
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the three dots dancing on the screen,
A promise of words, oh, what could they mean?
It’s a modern romance, and I’m hooked on the line,
Your reply’s like a signal, a lifeline, a sign.
(Are you gonna text me back?)
(Text me back)
[Chorus]
Text me back--
I’m hanging on every word,
Text me back--
it’s the only sound I’ve heard.
Text me back--
don’t leave me in this silent void,
Text me back--
your response is what I need, for real.
(Text me back, text me back!)
[Verse 2]
Notifications pop, but none are from you,
I’m lost in this silence, don’t know what to do.
Scrolling through old chats, replaying the past,
In this waiting game, time moves so fast.
Is it too much to ask, just a little reply?
In this anxious state, I can’t deny.
Your words are the cure for this modern disease,
In this quiet chaos, I’m down on my knees.
(Why don’t you text me back?)
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the three dots dancing on the screen,
A promise of words, oh, what could they mean?
It’s a modern romance, and I’m hooked on the line,
Your reply’s like a signal, a lifeline, a sign.
(Are you gonna text me back?)
[Chorus]
Text me back--
I’m hanging on every word,
Text me back--
it’s the only sound I’ve heard.
Text me back--
don’t leave me in this silent void,
Text me back--
your response is what I need, for real.
(Text me back, text me back!)
[Bridge]
Every second feels like an hour,
In this moment--
you hold all the power.
I’m tethered to the hope of your reply,
In this world of screens--
you’re the galaxy of my eye.
(Please just text me back!)
[Ending]
Text me back, text me back, text me back,
Text me back, text me back, text me back.
Text me back, text me back, text me back,
Text me back, text me back, text me back.
(Text me back, text me back!)
[Fade Away]
Every second feels like an hour,
Text me back, text me back, text me back.
[End Song]
[Outro]
Text me back, text me back, text me back,
Every second feels like an hour,
Text me back, text me back, text me back.
