Late Night Confessions

Got my phone in my hand

Typed your name, then erased it

All these half-finished texts

Yeah, I’m scared that you’ll taste it

The truth that I’m hiding

In jokes and in late replies

You say “it’s whatever”

But I hear the hurt in your sighs

You been patient

I been distant

Blaming timing

Blaming business

But it’s simple

I just miss us

You and me against the world, that’s the vision

These late night confessions

Only come when the room’s this quiet

Heart talk louder than my pride does

Guess I’m tired of always trying to fight it

You been in my mind on a loop, girl (on a loop, girl)

Every little thing that you do, girl

I’ve been running from the truth

Late night confessions

All point back to you

You remember that diner

Fries cold, but we stayed till two

Talking dreams, talking childhood

I ain’t opened like that with anyone but you

Now it’s “seen” on the messages

Voice notes I never send

I’m afraid if I play them

We go from strangers back to more than friends

You want answers

I want chances

We keep dancing

Around what’s real

If I say it

Will you feel it?

Can we turn this almost love to something we can heal?

These late night confessions

Only come when the room’s this quiet

Heart talk louder than my pride does

Guess I’m tired of always trying to fight it

You been in my mind on a loop, girl (on a loop, girl)

Every little thing that you do, girl

I’ve been running from the truth

Late night confessions

All point back to you

If I pull up, would you open the door? (hey)

Or leave me standing in the hallway, sore?

If I say “stay,” would you stay till the morning?

Or tell me some stories that sound like a warning?

These late night confessions

Only come when the room’s this quiet

Heart talk louder than my pride does

Guess I’m tired of always trying to fight it

You been in my mind on a loop, girl (on a loop, girl)

Every little thing that you do, girl

I’ve been running from the truth

Late night confessions

All point back to you
