If I had a car phone and you had a car phone

I could call you up right now

I wouldn't have to know where you are

I could dial in your car

And we could talk Connecticut to Kansas

and be paying the bills all our lives

People with cars with phones inside

make more money than you or I



If I had an airplane or you had an airplane

you could rest your head next to mine

Call me in my car tonight

tell me where to meet your private flight

And we'd get a hotel cause people with airplanes

sleep in very nice rooms for the night

they rush off in the first early morning light

living their lives at the speed of their flight



Some people have car phones and some they have airplanes

but only I have you

So pay phones and buses will do

the speed of a heart they don't try to improve

And if I'd had a car phone and you'd had an airplane

we might never have met on our road

cause you aren't where you are

you're more where you go

Can you live your life fast and try to love slow
