| Operator, well could you help me place this call See, the number on the match book is old and faded She's living in L.A With my best old ex-friend Ray A guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated But isn't that the way they say it goes Well let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine, and to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words Could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels Operator, well could you help me place this call 'Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me There's something in my eyes You know it happens every time I think about the love that I thought would save me But isn't that the way they say it goes Well let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine, and to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words Could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels No, no, no, no That's not the way it feels Operator, well let's forget about this call There's no one there I really wanted to talk to Thank you for your time Ah, you've been so much more then kind You can keep the dime But isn't that the way they say it goes Well let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine, and to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words Could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels | |
