Typing Your Name

Lyrics

Verse 1
You send a meme
I’m already smiling
You say “goodnight”
I stare at the screen
You’re just a face
Inside a tiny circle
But you’re the calm
In all my teenage chaos

Pre-Chorus
We joke about everything
But skip around this one thing
I replay every ping
Like it’s some secret meaning (oh)

Chorus
I’ve got a crush on my best friend online
Can’t call it love
Can’t cross that line
Parents say “wait
” but my heart hits send
Every time you’re typing my name again
I’m not allowed to fall like this
But my phone lights up
I can’t resist
If this is wrong
Then why’s it feel so right
Crush on my best friend on the other side of the wifi

Verse 2
You say “you’re cute
When you get defensive”
I change the subject
Act like it’s nothing
You talk about
A future I’m not in yet
Then double back
And ask who I’ve been texting

Pre-Chorus
You linger on “goodnight”
Type
Erase
Then hit “alright”
Are you fighting the same fight
Or am I reading every sign too bright

Chorus
I’ve got a crush on my best friend online
Can’t call it love
Can’t cross that line
Parents say “wait
” but my heart hits send
Every time you’re typing my name again
I’m not allowed to fall like this
But my phone lights up
I can’t resist
If this is wrong
Then why’s it feel so right
Crush on my best friend on the other side of the wifi

Bridge
If I said it out loud
Would you say it back
Or would we lose
Everything we have
So I’ll keep it in the chat
Hidden in the jokes we crack (yeah)
Circle your words in my head
Where no one can see

Chorus
I’ve got a crush on my best friend online
Can’t call it love
Can’t cross that line
Parents say “wait
” but my heart hits send
Every time you’re typing my name again
I’m not allowed to fall like this
But my phone lights up
I can’t resist
So for now I’ll keep it in my mind
Crush on my best friend living on the other side of the wifi (oh)
