she told me that you called when she wasn't in

you didn't leave a number, and never called back again

just a long lost friend

well I know better, and so do you

do yourself a favor, give it another try

do I have to tell you why



she'd love to see you

it isn't what you think at all

she's walkin' on air again

because you called



you hurt each other a long time ago

the storm is over but all of the lines are down

all around the town

I'm givin' you the news as straight as I can

she told me no one can take your place

now she wants to tell you, face to face



(CHORUS)



you should have seen her eyes

the minute she realized

that the voice inside the box belonged to you

she played it over and over

and over again my friend

trying to decide just what to do



(CHORUS)
