lyrics

Your profile picture's beautiful tonight
And I love every word that you type
It's weeks since the last time we talked
'Cause interaction's all but stopped
So can I really be in love with you?

Online romance, cables on fire
Two girls kissing on a telephone wire
Online romance, it's not reality
Online romance, or at least it wouldn't be
Reality

It's not a romance, that is clear
We've barely seen each other in about a year
Waved goodbye every day at 4
Then one day we didn't come back anymore

Kept apart, oh what a pity
See people random places like Salt Lake City
Online romance or a walk in the park
We'd stay online if we were smart!

Six-foot romance, that's no fun
Guess I'm the irresponsible one
Keep a distance of two meters
Walk out to the park to meet her
Oh...

Online romance, chances stolen
Heartbroken and half-crestfallen
See you in the misty morning
Practise love like I'm performing

I always message you first
Practically waiting by the telephone
You might say we're always together
But I say the world's all alone.
