That Facebook Message

[Intro – soft acoustic guitar arpeggios, light shaker] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1 – gentle guitar strums, quiet bass line] His name was Dan, found me on that screen Kept popping up, got under my skin I left him on read, thought he’d fade away But he stuck around, wouldn’t go away [Pre-Chorus – subtle piano joins, building warmth] Then one day I sighed, typed a reply Never guessed that reply would change my life Three little girls, curly hair and grins He holds them close, loves them like no other kin [Chorus – full acoustic band, warm harmonies] He tickles my feet when the lights go low Brings me a drink when the day’s done slow Wraps his arms tight when I’m standing still Whispers “I love you” before we sleep until We chase the magic down in Orlando sun Making memories till the day is done I’m so glad I hit send that day Turned a pester into forever’s sway [Verse 2 – playful guitar riff, light drum beat] We hit the mountains, road trip in the van His stomach twisted, hit him like a plan Traffic rolled by, he had no other choice Dropped his pants, made that mountain his voice [Pre-Chorus – upbeat piano, giggly vocal inflections] We laughed till we cried, couldn’t catch our breath That silly story’s still our favorite death Hard days came, but we held on tight Turned the dark nights into morning light [Chorus – layered vocals, brighter guitar tone] He tickles my feet when the lights go low Brings me a drink when the day’s done slow Wraps his arms tight when I’m standing still Whispers “I love you” before we sleep until We chase the magic down in Orlando sun Making memories till the day is done I’m so glad I hit send that day Turned a pester into forever’s sway [Bridge – stripped back acoustic guitar, intimate vocals] We’ve had our storms, our quiet rainy days But the good times shine, chase the gray away Three little hearts, our perfect little crew I’d choose him again, every time, it’s true [Interlude – soft piano solo, warm reverb] (Instrumental Solo) [Final Chorus – full band, soaring harmonies] He tickles my feet when the lights go low Brings me a drink when the day’s done slow Wraps his arms tight when I’m standing still Whispers “I love you” before we sleep until We chase the magic down in Orlando sun Making memories till the day is done I’m so glad I hit send that day Turned a pester into forever’s sway [Outro – fading guitar strums, quiet piano note] That Facebook message, a chance I took Now forever’s just a look
