Lyrics
"Delete My Heart"
By Yves Stilmant © 2025
Verse 1A
She had eyes like summer skies
And a smile that could hypnotize
Said she loved boots and bonfires too
Liked old George Jones and barbecue
Verse 1B
We talked for hours, day and night
She said I made her world feel right
I never met her, but dang she was sweet
So I wired cash to help her "make ends meet"
Pre-Chorus
She said, "One more week, then I'll be there"
Said she booked a flight, just needed fare
But days went by and things felt strange
Her sweet talk turned to pocket change
Chorus
Go on and delete my heart
Like a message left unread
I gave it all in bits and bytes
Now I'm broke and full of dread
She ain't no cowgirl, just a screen
Sellin' dreams and ghostin' me
Love ain't real when you're miles apart
So go on, baby--delete my heart
Verse 2A
She never FaceTimed, dodged the cam
Said her phone was old -- just a scam
Her voice was sweet, her words were gold
But her story kept gettin' more bold
Verse 2B
Said her grandma was sick in Peru
And her puppy needed surgery too
I sold my saddle, pawned my boots
For a love that vanished like the truth
Pre-Chorus
Now I sit alone with whiskey and shame
Staring at a name that wasn't even a name
All that charm just pixel smoke
Another dream down the digital choke
Chorus
Go on and delete my heart
Like a folder in the trash
I gave her hope and hard-earned time
She gave me nothin' back but crash
She ain't no angel, just a ghost
Livin' off some cowboy's hopes
Lesson learned -- and that's the hardest part
Go on, sweetheart--delete my heart
Bridge
Next time love won't come online
It'll walk through dust, not hide behind
A profile pic with "XOXO" lies
Real love looks you in the eyes
Final Chorus
So delete my heart -- go ahead and click
But karma's comin' fast and thick
You can fake a name, a face, a tone
But you can't fake what you don't own
Now I trust the ones who show up in boots
Not .jpegs sellin' fairy-tale truths
So I'll keep ridin' while you fall apart--
And cowboy up... from a deleted heart
