Screens Between Us

[Verse 1]
We were just two chairs
In a crowded room of friends
You laughed at something small
I knew it right then
Didn’t see this coming
Didn’t plan this kind of fall
Now it’s 3 a.m
And I’m waiting on your call
[Pre-Chorus]
You say “I’m tired”
But your eyes still shine
Holding the phone
Like you’re holding mine
[Chorus]
We’re loving through a screen again
Pixel hearts and typed-out hands
Every day
Every night
Just to feel like we’re together
We’re sending little worlds in text
Hope you feel my heartbeat in the next
‘Cause I can’t see you
Touch you
Can’t pull you in and hug you
But I’m yours
Through these screens between us
[Verse 2]
You show me your coffee
I show you my messy room
You talk about your mother
I talk about seeing you soon
Signal keeps on breaking
But we never break the call
Saying “one more minute”
Till the sun is on the wall
[Pre-Chorus]
You trace your name
On the foggy glass
I trace it too
Like I can touch your hands
[Chorus]
We’re loving through a screen again
Pixel hearts and typed-out hands
Every day
Every night
Just to feel like we’re together
We’re sending little worlds in text
Hope you feel my heartbeat in the next
‘Cause I can’t see you
Touch you
Can’t pull you in and hug you
But I’m yours
Through these screens between us
[Bridge]
One day this distance
Will turn into a doorway
I’ll run through an airport
You’ll be waiting there for me (oh yeah)
Till then every message
Every midnight “I miss you”
Is a little promise
I’m coming home to you
[Chorus]
We’re loving through a screen again
Pixel hearts and typed-out hands
Every day
Every night
Just to feel like we’re together
We’re sending little worlds in text
Hope you feel my heartbeat in the next
‘Cause I can’t see you
Touch you
Can’t pull you in and hug you
But I’m yours
Yeah I’m yours
Through these screens between us

Warm acoustic pop ballad with male vocals; gentle picked guitar and soft pads under the verses, subtle electronic pulses suggesting distance. Chorus opens with bigger strummed chords, airy backing harmonies, and a roomy snare for lift. Intimate close-mic vocal, small reverb, final chorus adds octave doubles and a simple piano line for emotional bloom.
