I SWIPED RIGHT INTO HEARTACHE (Cooper/Jones)
© 2025 All Rights Reserved 

I am a simple man into simple things 
I like three chords and an old six string
Minding my own I like to be alone
Don’t need anyone to make me whole 

Then I took a chance 
On you at first glance
Coz you looked kind 
And maybe were my type 
We got to texting 
Had some keyboard fun 
I got to thinking that you were the one 

But just as we got going 
Was when you got to ghosting

I swiped right into heartache 
Too naive for my own sake
Coz your profile was all fake
I made a big mistake 
When I swiped right into heartache 

I was kinda shy 
But you seemed so nice 
You coaxed me well 
Outta my tech shell 
I lowered my walls 
Not so bad after all 
But how I was wrong 
Suddenly you’d gone 

Coz just as we got going 
Was when you got to ghosting

I swiped right into heartache 
Too naive for my own sake
Coz your profile was all fake
I made a big mistake 
When I swiped right into heartache 

On the day your face stared back at me
From the light of my phone screen 
…You seemed a match
…A possible catch  
Your picture was serene

But I swiped right into heartache 
Too naive for my own sake
Coz your profile was all fake
I made a big mistake 
When I swiped right into heartache 

I swiped right into heartache 
Too naive for my own sake
Coz your profile was all fake
I made a big mistake 
When I swiped right into heartache 

I swiped right into heartache
It gave me a bad shake  
What a mess did an app make 
Gotta heal the break
Cos I swiped right into heartache

I Swiped Right Into Heartache
