Favorite Distraction (Version 3)

Woah
Woah

I sit down, coffee cooling by the screen
Open up a file, swear I'm gonna be routine
Then your name lights up like a neon sign
And my focus trips, falling out of line

One idea turns into twenty-two
Every thought somehow circles back to you
I blink once, swear it's only been a minute
Look again—whole day's gone missing in it

I say "just five minutes," yeah I always do
But five turns into hours when I talk to you

You're my favorite distraction, yeah
Tick-tock, losing all my traction, yeah
Try to work but I drift instead
Got you stuck inside my head

Quiet crush—no, I lied again
Say your name
Say your name, make the hours bend
I lose whole days just talking to you
And I kinda love that I do

Serious face, got a plan today
But you hit me with a line that blows it away
Your texts are coming through at just the wrong time
Now I'm grinning at my screen like I've lost my mind

Deadlines blink like they're waving goodbye
While we build whole worlds just passing by
Every laugh turns into melodies
Every moment begging to be a song with me

I swear I'll start after one last word
But you pull another thought I've never heard

You're my favorite distraction, yeah
Tick-tock, losing all my traction, yeah
Try to work but I drift instead
Got you stuck inside my head

Quiet crush—no, I lied again
Say your name
Say your name, make the hours bend
I lose whole days just talking to you
And I kinda love that I do

Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

Maybe I should fight it, maybe I should try
But every song I write is born from you and I
If losing hours means I get this feeling
Then maybe losing time is how I'm healing

Tick-tock melts into sound
We talk, the world shuts down

You're my favorite distraction, yeah
Tick-tock, losing all my traction, yeah
Try to work but I drift instead
Got you stuck inside my head

Quiet crush—no, I lied again
Say your name
Say your name, make the hours bend
I lose whole days just talking to you
And I kinda love that I do

I'll work tomorrow, I swear I will
Tonight I'm lost in the way you feel
If time disappears when I'm with you
Maybe that's what love is supposed to do
