Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You call me babe, I let it slide
But I’m not crossing 35
I’ve got a life, a kid, and taste
You’re a Tuesday maybe, not a full-on chase

We vibe on songs and Sunday shows
But I don’t do cuddles or “where this goes”
You make a playlist—I might press play
But don’t expect a reply when you text “hey”

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ll laugh too loud at your clever lines
But I dip when the convo crosses into “signs”
I’m not your always, I’m not your plan
I’m the best night out you’ll never understand

[Chorus]
I’m girlfriend adjacent, vibes on rotation
Curated affection with no destination
I’ll steal your hoodie, skip your fears
But I won’t stay long enough to hear your tears
No labels, no pressure, no deep rewind
Just me and the aux and a “you’ll be fine”

[Verse 2]
You wanna build, I wanna chill
Watch reruns, make out, send zero bills
You say it feels real, I say it’s the wine
You’re planning the future, I’m pressing decline

I know your favorites, your indie phase
But I’m not here for your healing days
You want forever, I want control
Of the playlist, the plans, and my goddamn soul

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You send good mornings, I send memes
You dream of love, I dream of jeans
That still fit right after wine and fries
You want real—I want “surprise, goodbye!”

[Chorus]
I’m girlfriend adjacent, queen of evasion
Hooked on connection, allergic to persuasion
I’ll hold your hand on commercial breaks
Then vanish mid-credits for both our sakes
No crying, no closure, just good TV
And a girl who’s more vibe than stability

[Bridge]
I’m not a ghost—I’m just preoccupied
With my own damn joy and my Spotify
If you want a ride-or-die—try someone less tired
I’m spark, not flame. I’m vibe, not required

[Final Chorus]
I’m girlfriend adjacent, not quite resistant
But you won’t find me on the “committed” wishlist
I’ll dance through the night, sing your favorite song
Then say “goodnight” like nothin’s wrong
I’m playlist poison, I’m unread signs—
But damn, we looked cute in those Friday nights
