Mysterious "pocket message" appears on my iPhone 6

I had been texting my son. I hit the button to close it out, put the phone in my pocket and 5 minutes later when i pulled the phone out, hit the button again to unlock it, the chat with him came up and a text had been started and as if it had been just left hanging in the middle of a message. The cursor was blinking. Thing is, I didn't hit voice, I didn't say these words, I didn't type this in,there's absolutely no reason for this text to have appeared. Here's the text;

"It was the best day ever I go back to sleep now and it is not the same thing you know that you have a"

And that was it. How could a phantom text appear on my phone? And no spongebob wasn't on tv..

thanks

It's not part of messages. It's your keyboard memory. It was typed at some point somewhere but not finished.

I don't know. Maybe the auto-correct feature may have been trying to piece together words from letters that were accidentally pressed while the device was in your pocket.
