lyrics
The things that you say send me away
Your touch is enough I forget who I am
I don’t mind at all just to wait for your call
With my heart on my sleeve and my head in my hands
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I hear what you say but you’re too far away
My arms aren’t so long I can touch you from here
The touch of your lips and the world starts to slip
But kisses don’t travel through telephone lines
I try to get through with a picture of you
But I can’t use a picture to look in our eyes
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I hear what you say but you’re too far away
My arms aren’t so long I can touch you from here
The things that you say send me away
Your touch is enough I forget who I am
I don’t mind at all just to wait for your call
With my heart on my sleeve and my head in my hands
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I’m all alone with you on the phone
But I’d still prefer to be holding you near
Your touch is enough I forget who I am
I don’t mind at all just to wait for your call
With my heart on my sleeve and my head in my hands
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I hear what you say but you’re too far away
My arms aren’t so long I can touch you from here
The touch of your lips and the world starts to slip
But kisses don’t travel through telephone lines
I try to get through with a picture of you
But I can’t use a picture to look in our eyes
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I hear what you say but you’re too far away
My arms aren’t so long I can touch you from here
The things that you say send me away
Your touch is enough I forget who I am
I don’t mind at all just to wait for your call
With my heart on my sleeve and my head in my hands
I’ve got the dime if you’ve got the time
Me and Ma Bell will be perfectly clear
I’m all alone with you on the phone
But I’d still prefer to be holding you near
