Remember when~
The flicker of the telephone
The song it used to sing
When you were a memory,
Thousands of miles away from me
Your breath against the ear piece,
A crutch that allowed us to fly
Distances makes the heart grow
Even more ready to die
How did you picture me?
Far away and so alone
Touching the curves of my body,
While you were on the telephone
Has your fantasy reached reality?
A harsh glare that you thought you'd never find?
Oh, the porcelain doll has a crack
But you already signed along the dotted line
Your sweet little marionette has become entangled in its strings
Will you cut her down?
Or breathe for her to sing?
Tired eyes have seen it all
The circus can no longer entertain as it did before
But remember when that phone did ring
Not so long ago
The woman you loved - a saving grace
A hope, a dream, a song
Let your heart grow again
Your fantasy was not wrong
Dust off the old poster
Polish the frame
And realize that what you thought had lost,
Is here by your side again.
