about
Interesting facts:
>One of the first songs the band wrote together.
>The verse came from a rough recording on Luke's phone which Rory liked. The song was expanded through jamming, John adding his first drum bits to one of their compositions.
>In the studio while Rory was laying down his vocals, Luke and John went into another room and came up with the glockenspiel/choir vocal melody that you hear behind the solo.

lyrics
Texted her, and said, I want you, yeah
Texted me, and said, I want you, yeah
Texted her, and said, come over, here
Texted me, and said, ok, yeah
And I came on over
I came on the way over
I was so glad I came over, her
I stayed over, and went home, the next day
Texted her, and said, I want you, yeah
Texted me, and said, I want you, yeah
Such a waste of texts, sending such short messages, yeah
Texted her, and said, come over, here
And I came on over
I came all the way over
I was so glad I came over, her
I stayed over, and went home, the next day
