Operator, well could you help me place this call? See, the number on the matchbook 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
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, could you help me place this call? Well, 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 a love that I thought would save me
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, let's forget about this call You see there's no one there I really wanted to talk to Thank you for your time, ah, you've been so much more than kind And you can keep the dime
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
